Paramount  made 
some  big  promises 
when  it  announced 
the  "Famous  41," 
but  when  '  'Blood  and 
Sand"  came  along  it 
was  even  bigger  than 
you  had  imagined. 
It  broke  records 
everywhere.

''The  Old  Home- 
stead," as  big  if  not 
bigger,  came  along 
immediately  and 
stormed  the  country. 
Everybody  knewthen 
that  no  matter  how 
big  Paramount's 
promises  were,  the 
fulfilment  would  be 
bigger.

And  the  high  hopes 
that  these  three  had 
encouraged  were 
more  than  justified 
by  "To  Have  and  To

Paramount  is  your

''Clarence/'  another 
masterpiece,  proved 
the  laughing  hit  of 
the  year.  And  all  the 
other  Paramount  Pic- 
tures not  listed  here, 
proved  worthy  of  the

Kick  In,;'  like  the 
five  just  listed,  is  a 
picture  which  in  any 
other  season  would 
have  been  the  out- 
standing hit.  But  this, 
thanks  to  Paramount, 
was  a  season  of  record- 
breakers.  And  Para- 
mount has  bigger 
plans  for  the  future. 
More  big  promises— 
that  will  be  kept!

The    Outlook 

By  Joe  Dannenberg  ("Danny"),  publisher  and  editor  of  THE  FILM  DAILY 


G 


REAT  in  importance  is  the  outlook  for 
1923.  Troublesome,  perhaps,  as  well. 
For  the  problems  confronting  all  phases  of 
the  industry  are  many,  and  the  agitation, 
on  the  eve  of  the  year,  is  replete  with  pos- 
sibilities. 

Not  the  least  of  importance  is  the  possi- 
bility of  the  development  of  a  huge  pro- 
ducing and  distributing  machine  on  the  part 
of  organized  exhibitors.  Officials  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Theater  Owners  of  America 
are  heading  a  movement  which,  during  the 
year,  may  assume  real  proportions.  If  the 
movement  develops,  as  many  believe  it  will, 
it  will  assuredly  urge  material  activity  on  the  part  of  the  present  large 
distributing  organizations.  This  activity  may  result  in  several  definite  moves, 
intended  to  offset  the  exhibitor-producing-distribution  development.  It  may 
find  a  resumption  of  activity  on  the  part  of  Famous  Players  in  securing  more 
houses  for  its  product;  it  may  find  the  Loew-Metro  group  active  in  developing 
further  houses  for  the  Loew  chain ;  it  may  find  Associated  First  National  suf- 
ficiently antagonistic  to  further  develop  the  sub-franchise  idea,  and  in  addi- 
tion, movements  on  the  part  of  the  individual  distributing  companies — to  say 
nothing  of  what  may  happen  among  producers — in  an  effort  to  sustain  their 
existing  organizations. 

Should  the  exhibitor  movement  fully  develop  it  is  a  question  at  this 
moment,  whether  it  could  assume  very  definite  form  much  before  the  Spring 
or  perhaps  the  Fall  season  of  1924.  Many  cities  have  to  be  canvassed  during 
the  Spring;  and  assuming  the  capital  of  $5,000,000  is  subscribed,  or  a  suffi- 
cient amount  to  warrant  going  ahead  actively,  it  will  take  time  to  secure 
productions,  to  build  the  necessary  distribution  machine  and  prepare  the 
many  cogs  in  the  big  wheel  before  it  can  turn.  It  is  simple  to  discuss  the 
idea  of  a  production-distribution  machine  of  this  size;  it  is  another  matter 
to  perfect  it  to  the  point  of  operating  with  a  reasonable  degree  of  perfection. 
There  is  probably  no  other  matter  of  such  proportion  facing  1923.  There 
are  many  thoroughly  experienced  men  in  the  producing  and  distributing  end 
of  the  business  who  look  with  trepidation  at  the  exhibitor  movement.  They 
fear  the  consequences,  and  do  not  hesitate  to  say  so.  Among  other  possible 
developments  they  fear  the  possibiHty  of  a  national  booking  organization  on 
the  part  of  certain  distributors,  several  of  whom  were  interested  a  few  years 
ago  in  the  proposed  national  booking  plan  developed  by  Jules  E.  Mastbaum 
of  the  Stanley  Company  of  America.  They  do  not  hesitate  to  say  that  unless 
such  an  organization  was  operated  to  the  utmost  degree  of  ethical  efficiency 
that  it  would  result  in  grave  difficulties;  but  they  point  to  the  unlikelihood 
of  such  a  possibility,  and  immediately  present  the  thought  of  difficulty  devel- 
oping in  the  exhibitor  organization  from  this  very  viewpoint.  It  is  unfor- 
tunate that  the  ethical  side  of  the  industry  has  not  been  developed  to  a 
stronger  point ;  unfortunate  for  all  parties  concerned. 

HARMONY 
There  is  nothing  at  the  moment  indicative  of  a  better  relationship  exist- 
ing between  the  exhibitor  branch  of  the  trade  and  the  distribution  and  pro- 
duction end.     All  efforts  to  secure  a  better  relationship  between  the  Hays 
organization  of  producers  and  distributors,  and  the  organized  exhibitor  body, 


have  failed.  The  possibiHty  of  Roscoe  Arbuckle  returning  to  the  screen 
furnished  an  opportunity  for  the  officials  and  leaders  of  the  M.  P.  T.  O.  of  A. 
to  vent  their  feelings  towards  the  Hays  organization  in  no  uncertain  terms, 
and  the  inability  of  these  organizations  to  secure  a  standard  form  of  contract, 
also  demonstrated  the  existence  of  the  wide  gap  which  exists.  No  one  with 
sane  reasoning  can  figure  why  there  should  not  be  a  better  understanding 
between  these  pivotal  branches  of  the  industry.  Indications,  however,  point 
to  the  continuance,  if  not  a  widening,  of  the  existing  breach.  Unfortunate 
as  this  is,  no  one  seems  able  to  develop  that  degree  of  understanding  which 
might  change  the  situation.  The  politics  of  the  exhibitor  organization  are 
largely  responsible  for  this.  But,  in  behalf  of  the  exhibitor  body,  there  is 
hardly  a  doubt  but  that  they  have  grievances  which  should  be  satisfied.  But 
the  lack  of  confidence  existing  hardly  warrants  the  belief  that  there  will  be  a 
better  understanding  in  1923  than  heretofore. 

PRODUCTION 

Production  plans  for  the  year  are  interesting.  Probably  nothing  is  of 
greater  importance  than  the  proposed  working  arrangement  between  Warner 
Brothers  and  David  Belasco.  If  this  works  out  as  planned,  and  the  master 
of  the  stage  actively  becomes  interested  in  the  screen  production  of  his  plays, 
a  great  step  will  have  been  made  in  bringing  to  the  screen  that  artistry  and 
charm  which  have  always  identified  the  Belasco  successes  on  the  stage.  The 
ambitious  program  of  the  Warners  is  not  a  secondary  phase  of  the  outlook. 
Among  the  other  "independent"  producers  whose  plans  are  of  importance 
are  those  of  the  Al  Lichtman  Corp.,  which  secured  an  unusual  start  with  the 
release  of  "Rich  Men's  Wives." 

The  older  companies  present  an  interesting  program.  Famous  Players 
will  bank  heavily  on  "The  Covered  Wagon"  as  one  of  their  outstanding  pro- 
ductions. At  the  moment  there  is  no  indication  that  the  breach  between  Val- 
entino and  Famous  will  be  straightened  out.  Valentino  quickly  became  a 
tremendous  box  office  asset  following  his  appearance  in  "The  Sheik."  Asso- 
ciated First  National  will  continue  to  bank  on  the  Talmadge  sisters  as  their 
outstanding  bet.  Chaplin  goes  to  United  Artists  during  1923.  Goldwyn, 
practically  reorganized,  will  depend  largely  on  "The  Christian"  and  possibly 
"Ben  Hur"  in  addition  to  the  Marshall  Neilan  productions  for  the  coming 
year.  The  United  Artists,  with  Fairbanks,  Pickford  and  Chaplin  on  the  pro- 
gram, in  addition  to  the  Griffith  output,  and  with  the  Allied  Artists  co-related, 
promises  to  prove  an  important  factor  again.  There  has  been  considerable 
criticism  of  the  policy  inaugurated  by  Fairbanks  and  Pickford,  of  only  having 
one  or  two  pictures  a  year,  big  though  they  may  be,  and  costly.  Exhibitors 
contend  that  they  would  be  far  more  helpful  to  the  industry  as  a  whole  if  they 
appeared  oftener.  As  an  instance  to  prove  their  contention  they  cite  the 
rapid  growth  of  Harold  Lloyd,  who  stepped  out  vigorously  during  1922  and 
established  a  prominence  as  a  comedian  which  promises  to  give  Chaplin  much 
difficulty  to  maintain  his  standing  as  the  premier  comedian  of  the  screen. 
Lloyd  developed  into  a  comedian  of  feature  length  pictures  and  the  first  few 
of  his  productions  quickly  gave  him  a  forward  place.  Much  will  be  expected 
of  him  during  1923.     In  his  behalf  Pathe  promises  much. 

Probably  no  other  organization  in  the  business  developed  such  headway 
during  1922  as  Metro.  Only  the  tremendous  success  of  "The  Four  Horse- 
men" prevented  this  organization  from  disintegrating.  The  success  of  the 
Ibanez  production  not  only  gave  Rex  Ingram  a  foremost  position  as  a  pro- 
ducer-director, but  incidentally  set  Metro  along  the  path  of  "big"  pictures. 
In  this  they  proved  remarkably  successful.  All  the  Ingram  pictures  proved 
very  successful  at  the  box  office,  the  Mae  Murray  productions  proved  an  unus- 
ual success — and  an  unexpected  one — and  what  with  these  and  their  "specials" 
Metro  forged  forward  and  became  recognized  as  one  of  the  companies  from 


which  much  is  to  be  expected  during-  this  year.  The  Selznick  organization 
expects  "Rupert  of  Hentzau"  to  set  them  well  up  during-  the  year  as  an  im- 
portant production  organization. 

Practically  every  executive  of  importance  has  expressed  the  belief  that 
"only  big  pictures  pay."  To  this  end  producers  generally  directed  their  en- 
deavors. There  were,  however,  during  the  past  year  a  number  of  successes 
which  prove  the  desirability  of  good  pictures  at  a  price  to  the  exhibitor  where- 
by he  could  establish  a  profit  and  yet  at  the  same  time  satisfy  his  clientele. 

Universal  Film,  with  "The  Storm,"  demonstrated  this  most  satisfacto- 
rily. This  same  organization  has  in  contemplation  for  1923  several  produc- 
tions which  thev  think  will  meet  with  the  same  result,  notably  Booth  Tark- 
ington's  "The  Flirt,"  made  by  Hobart  Henley.  In  addition  there  is  a  strong 
possibility  of  Universal's  big  production  of  "The  Hunchback  of  Notre  Dame" 
being  released  during  the  coming  year.  For  some  time  past  Lon  Chaney  has 
keenly  desired  to  make  this. 

While  the  "big"  specials  of  Fox  Film  failed  in  a  way  to  prove  the  box 
office  sensation  comparable  with  those  of  1921.  there  is  no  indication  that 
Fox  will  step  aside  from  the  big  special  program  for  the  coming  year. 

The  Film  Booking  Offices  of  America — the  reorganized  Robertson-Cole 
Corporation — has  some  ambitious  plans  including  "The  Third  Alarm,"  a 
fireman's  picture  somewhat  on  the  order  of  "In  the  Name  of  the  Law,"  a 
policeman's  picture,  and  it  is  understood  that  they  are  going  into  the  rail- 
roads, the  life  of  a  postman  and  other  such  human  subjects  as  part  of  their 
program.  This  type  of  picture  invariably  meets  with  success  because  of  its 
common  appeal. 

Vitagraph  plans  more  important  productions.  The  likelihood  of  Samuel 
Goldwyn's  return  to  the  industry  as  a  producer  is  imminent  at  this  writing. 
The  development  of  Jackie  Coogan  is  also  fraught  with  interest.  The  success 
of  "Oliver  Twist"  was  unusual  and  established  him  definitely  as  a  star. 

PRICES 

A  long  sustained  and  continuous  wail  was  heard  throughout  the  year 
and  promises  to  continue  relative  to  rentals  on  important  and  so-called  big 
pictures.  Many  exhibitors  feel  that  the  prices  asked  are  ruinous,  but  despite 
this  they  seem  to  continue  to  pay  these  prices.  Naturally,  thev  continue  to 
go  up.  On  the  other  hand,  producers  maintain  that  while  prices  are  high 
they  are  still  below  the  level  of  what  they  should  be  to  secure  from  these 
large  productions  the  natural  profit  which  the  investment  should  produce. 
As  an  instance  of  this  a  prominent  producer  cited  that  it  would  take  Fair- 
banks at  least  eighteen  months  or  two  vears  to  secure  the  return  of  the  actual 
investment  of  "Robin  Hood"  before  "he  made  a  nickle."  This  despite  that 
"Robin  Hood"  is  being  sold  at  unusuallv  high  prices  by  United  Artists. 

FOREIGN   PICTURES 

With  the  closing  of  the  German  branch  of  Famous  Players  late  in  the 
vear  much  of  the  talk  in  opposition  to  foreign  pictures  faded  away.  Little 
is  feared  today  of  what  threatened  to  be  "the  foreign  invasion."  It  is  inter- 
esting to  note,  however,  that  the  development  of  British  production  reached 
a  point  unusually  worth  while  and  interesting  pictures  reached  this 
country  from  England,  notablv  "A  Bill  of  Divorcement."  scheduled  for  spring 
release  by  Associated  Exhibitors.  Information  at  hand  as  to  the  plans  of 
several  important  English  companies  are  indicative  of  large  productions  made 
with  stars  well-k-nown  in  America  to  arrive  during  the  spring  and  summer. 
Among  these  are  the  Tom  Terriss  specials  from  Ideal  Films  and  the  Gaumont 
Companv  of  London.  Stoll's  picture.  "The  Prodigal  Son,"  a  well-known 
Hall  Caine  story,  is  anticipated  with  interest  and  there  are  others  in  the 
making.  At  this  writing  England,  rather  than  Germany,  seems  to  be  the 
only  possible  rival  of  American  production.

What  John  Milton  did  in  the  fight  for 
freedom  of  the  press;  what  Benjamin 
Franklin  did;  what  was  done  by  Horace 
Greeley,  Charles  A.  Dana,  Joseph  Pu- 
litzer, Colonel  Nelson,  General  Harrison 
Gray  Otis,  and  by  Henry  Watterson,  and 
what  is  being  done  by  Cyrus  Curtis  and 
by  other  heroic  figures  in  the  long  pull 
for  finer  and  better  service,  and  for  con- 
stitutional protection  of  freedom  of  the 
press  from  the  aggressions  of  political 
control — all  those  things  must  be  done  in 
the  motion  picture  industry  here  and  now. 

Pioneers  Are  Still  in  Business 

Nothing  can  be  taken  from  the  past. 
The  men  who  first  took  up  this  new  thing 
are  still  alive.  The  pioneers  of  our  in- 
dustry are  the  men  who  are  still  in  the 
business.  We  are  at  this  moment  in  the 
very  midst  of  achieving  a  new  set  of  high 
standards  in  our  relations  to  each  other 
and  to  the  public  and  in  our  responsibili- 
ties to  the  world.  The  difficulties  are  be- 
ing worked  out,  and  so  great  an  agency 
for  good  will  the  motion  picture  soon  be- 
come, if  sincere  efforts  count  and  sincere 
cooperation  is  given  by  thinking  Ameri- 
cans— that  before  long  criticism  will  die 
away  and  the  present  critics  will  be 
sounding  the  praise  of  this  new  art,  based 
always  on  its  demonstrated  integrity, 
qualit}'  and  usefulness. 

One  way  to  help  make  good  pictures 
is  easy,  and  that  is  to  support  the  good 
pictures.  If  one  were  to  start  a  vegeta- 
rian hotel,  and  day  by  day  the  guests  were 
to  storm  into  the  dining  room  demanding 
roast  beef  cooked  rare,  this  hotel  keeper, 
though  the  most  enthusiastic  of  vegeta- 
rians, would  experience  substantial  diffi- 
culty in  putting  over  a  bill  of  fare  con- 
sisting of  asparagus. 

I  an:  not  suggesting  an  alibi  for  the 
motion  picture  business,  for  the  motion 
picture  business  is  coming  through  on  the 
highway  which  leads  to  better  pictures. 
I  am  only  emphasizing  that  this  is  not  a 
one  man  job,  nor  the  job  of  one  group; 
it  is  the  multitude's  job  and  in  doing  it 
there  is  work  for  all. 

Censorship 

I  refer  for  a  moment  to  the  question 
of  censorship,  which  is  an  incident  in  the 
matter.  The  American  public,  of  course, 
is  the  real  censor  for  the  motion  picture 
just  as  it  is  for  the  press  and  the  pulpit. 
The  people  of  this  country  are  against 
censorship  fundamentally,  against  censor- 
ship of  press,  against  censorship  of  pul- 
pit, and  against  censorship  of  pictures. 
But  just  as  certainly,  my  friends,  is  this 
country  against  wrong  doing,  and  the  de- 
mand for  censorship  will  fail  when  the 
reason  for  the  demand  is  removed.  As 
we  move  toward  the  consummation  of 
the  objects  of  our  Association  just  in  like 
degree  will  recede  all  demands  for  cen- 
sorship. 


An  interesting  thing  happened  in  Mas- 
sachusetts at  the  last  election.  In  1921 
a  bill  was  passed  by  the  Massachusetts 
legislature  providing  for  the  censorship 
of  motion  pictures.  Under  the  provisions 
of  a  Massachusetts  statute  so  providing, 
a  petition  was  filed  by  the  necessary  num- 
ber for  a  referendum,  so  at  this  election 
the  people  of  the  Bay  State  had  a  direct 
vote  as  to  whether  or  not  there  should 
be  a  political  censorship  of  this  method 
of  expression. 

When  the  Act  w^as  originally  passed 
there  was  a  very  generous  support  of 
the  measure,  and  resolutions  were  actually 
passed  by  some  400  civic  and  religious 
organizations  favoring  the  enactment  of 
a  law,  and  other  great  influences  seemed 
to  favor  it.  This  summer,  however,  a 
citizens'  committee  was  formed  of  some 
300  splendid  Massachusetts  men  and 
women,  who  made  it  their  own  fight. 
The  Press  of  Massachusetts  took  it  up 
and  were  practically  a  unit  in  declaring 
for  the  defeat  of  the  measure.  They  too, 
made  it  their  fight,  with  a  full  appreciation 
of  the  fact  that  it  is  not  so  much  the 
length  of  the  step  as  the  direction  of  the 
step  that  is  important  in  anything.  It 
is  a  well  known  fact  that  the  vote  on 
any  referendum  question  or  const. tutional 
amendment  is  usually  but  a  small  part 
of  the  total  vote  cast  for  the  political 
offices. 

Remarkable  Result 

With  this  in  mind,  the  result  of  this 
Massachusetts  election  was  most  remark- 
able. The  total  vote  against  censorship 
was  545,919,  the  total  vote  for  censorship 
207,476;  a  majority  against  censorship  of 
338,443.  The  largest  number  of  votes 
cast  for  any  candidate  for  any  office  on 
anj'  ticket  was  that  cast  for  the  success- 
ful candidate  for  Governor,  468,277,  which 
was  77,000  less  than  the  "No"  vote  on 
censorship.  I  rather  think  this  is  an 
unprecedented  performance.  It  certainly 
shows  the  deep  interest  the  people  have 
in  pictures. 

This  result  is  a  splendid  response  to 
the  appeal  of  the  press  and  the  citizens 
of  Massachusetts  against  this  undue 
political  aggression,  but  just  as  certainly 
is  it  a  challenge  to  the  motion  picture 
industry  to  work  out  successfully  its  own 
program  for  its  own  betterment,  and  that 
responsibility  is  accepted  by  the  industry 
and  -will  be  discharged. 

I  am  against  political  censorship,  of 
course,  because  political  censorship  will 
not  do  what  is  hoped  for  it  in  the  last 
analysis.  Now  and  then  some  one  might 
ask:  "If  the  motion  picture  producers 
really  mean  to  make  better  pictures,  why 
do  they  object  to  political  censorship?" 
The  chief  answer  to  this  question  was 
w^ritten  when  human  nature  was  formed; 
at  least  that  part  of  human  nature  which 
is    doing    business    under    the    stars    and

stripes,   and   that  answer  consists   chiefly 
of  one  word — Liberty. 

The  motion  picture  business  objects  to 
political  censorship  for  one  great  reason, 
because  the  motion  picture  business  is  an 
American.  Political  censorship  drove  the 
Pilgrims  to  Plymouth  Rock;  political 
censorship  faced  the  Minute  Men  at  Con- 
cord; political  censorship  caused  the  Bos- 
ton Tea  Party;  in  this  new  effort  to  con- 
trol politically  this  great  method  of  ex- 
pression Massachusetts  took  a  character- 
istically splendid  American  position. 

There  is  one  place  and  one  place  only 
where  any  evils  in  motion  pictures  can 
be  eliminated  and  the  good  and  great 
advantages  retained,  and  that  is  at  the 
point  where  and  the  time  when  the  pic- 
tures are  made,  by  the  men  who  make 
them. 

Raising  the  Standards 

With  the  raising  of  the  moral  and  ar- 
tistic standard  comes  with  greater  ease 
the  development  of  the  educational  value 
of  the  motion  picture.  It  must  be  and 
is  the  earnest  purpose  of  the  industry  to 
strive  with  renewed  effort  continually  to 
make  presentations  historically  correct 
and  to  give  authentic  portrayals  of  cus- 
toms, costumes,  and  habits. 

In  addition  to  the  general  educational 
value  of  entertainment  pictures  we  are 
concerned,  of  course,  with  two  additional 
phases;  first,  the  pedagogic  pictures,  and 
then  the  picture  which  is  semi-educational 
and  semi-entertaining.  I  am  very  sure 
that  soon  there  will  be  series  of  motion 
pictures  adopted  by  boards  of  education 
just  as  new  series  of  text  books  are 
adopted.  They  must  be,  of  course,  scien- 
tifically, psychologically  and  pedagogically 
sound. 

It  has  been  my  hope  that  we  might 
immediately  make  some  progress  in  this 
direction  and  we  have  been  working  to 
that  end.  At  the  annual  convention  of 
the  National  Education  Association  this 
summer  in  Boston,  I  suggested  on  behalf 
of  our  Association  to  some  3,000  teachers 
who  were  there  representing  a  member- 
ship in  their  organization  alone  of  more 
than  115,000,  that  we  jointly  study  the 
demand  for  pedagogic  pictures,  and  that 
we  turn  over  to  them  all  of  our  facilities 
to  aid  in  the  experimentation.  I  sug- 
gested that  a  committee  be  appointed  by 
their  association  made  up  of  the  very 
best  educators  in  the  country,  and  that 
they  meet  with  the  great  producers  and 
together  study  the  whole  problem  of  the 
use  of  the  motion  picture  as  a  direct 
pedagogic  instrument  and  together  find 
the  means  of  making  classroom  pictures 
which  would  be  scientifically,  psychologi- 
cally and  pedagogically  sound,  thereby 
being  able  to  take  care  of  the  demand 
which  now  obtains,  but  also  of  the  great

the  educators  of  the  country.  This  offer 
was  accepted  by  that  convention,  a  com- 
mittee was  ordered  appointed,  a  com- 
mittee has  been  appointed,  consisting  in 
addition  to  Dr.  Wm.  B-  Owen,  President 
of  the  National  Education  Association,  of 
the  following:  Dr.  Charles  H.  Judd, 
University  of  Chicago,  Chairman;  Col.

Non-Theatrical  Field  His  Hobby 

The  non-theatrical  demand  and  supply 
is  one  of  the  big  questions.  Personally, 
it  is  a  hobby  with  me,  and  from  the  time 
this  work  was  first  brought  to  my  atten- 
tion until  now  I  have  urged  constantly, 
both  in  public  and  in  private,  that  there 
will  be  films  in  churches  and  schools 
everywhere.  I  believe  this,  and  very 
much,  indeed,  has  been  done  in  the  last 
six  months  toward  developing  a  demand 
in  this  field.  As  I  said  in  a  speech  at 
Boston  before  the  National  Education 
Association: 

"The^  problem  which  faces  all  of  us  is 
to  provide  some  plan  of  cooperation  which 
will  provide  film  material  for  instructional 
use  in  schools  and  colleges,  and  suitable 
films  for  churches  and  welfare  organiza- 
tions— some  plan  which  will  secure  the 
active  cooperation  of  theater  owners  and 
public  leaders,  and  which  will  safeguard 
against  harmful  competition  between  non- 
theatrical  and  theatrical  groups.  These 
matters,  which  are  merely  incident  to 
the  youth  and  tremendous  expansion  of 
the  business,  can  be  worked  out  satis- 
factorily without  question." 

The  problem  of  semi-religious  and 
semi-educational  films  is  not  so  extensive 
as  that  of  pedagogic  films,  but  is  much 
more  difficult.  Every  one  is  for  pedagogic 
films  in  the  classroom  and,  of  coyrse, 
there  is  no  objection  to  purely  religious 
films  in  the  churches.  The  matter,  there- 
fore, of  pedagogic  films  and  purely  re- 
ligious films  presents  no  problem  save 
only  the  problem  of  providing  an  organ- 


First    National  Attractions 
1922-1923 

Edwin  Carewe  has  produced  more 
commercially  successfuljpictures  than  any 
other  director. 

"Give  the  public  what  they  want"  is 
his  slogan. 

"Let  them  call  me  commercial  if  they 
will,"  says  Carewe,  "boxoffice  value  is 
what  counts." 


ized  demand  and  an  organized  supply. 
However,  in  developing  the  industry  as 
regards  an  organized  demand  and  an 
organized  supply  of  semi-religious  and 
semi-educational  films  there  are  definite 
economical  duties  and  limitations  that 
have  to  be  recognized;  there  are  also 
certain  ethical  and  moral  duties  and 
limitations,  and  while  w^e  are  continually 
encouraging  the  development  of  those 
phases  of  the  industry  and  finding  ways 
for  the  supply  of  the  proper  demand  in 
that  regard,  we  always  predicate  this 
interest  and  activity  on  the  assumption 
that  in  such  plans  as  are  developed  it 
will  always  be  recognized  that  the  theater 
owner  has  certain  real  rights  in  the 
premises,  which  rights  would  naturally  be 
recognized  first  of  all  by  those  who  are 
interested  in  seeing  religious  films. 

The  fact  is,  of  course,  that  the  theater 
owner  pays  a  national  and  state  tax  on 
his  theater,  a  license  fee,  an  extra  insur- 
ance premium  and  other  special  levies  in 
order  to  run  his  business  and  provide  for 
the  essential  amusement  of  the  people, 
and  it  would  be  obviously  unfair  to  him 
to  create  a  competition  to  draw  the  same 
audience,  with  or  without  charge,  to  see 
the  same  attraction  into  places  which 
have  no  such  burdens.  Such  a  thing 
would  neither  be  morally  nor  economically 
sound. 

Churches  Need  Pictures 

While  this  is  true  it  is  just  as  certain 
that  there  is  an  actual  and  potential  need 
for  pictures  in  churches,  of  the  type  which 
are  thoroughly  proper  from  every  stand- 
point and  which  will  do  great  good,  and 
which  need  must  be  met.  All  the  demand 
there  is  and  the  demand  of  tomorrow, 
which  in  my  opinion  is  inestimable,  can 
and  will  be  taken  care  of  in  a  way  that 
will  not  be  an  injustice  to  the  theater 
owner  in  any  way  whatever. 

Another  effort  which  we  are  making 
is  the  development  of  the  full  usefulness 
of  the  motion  picture  as  an  instrument 
of  international  amity.  Do  not  forget 
that  just  as  there  is  developed  between 
individuals  a  better  relationship  based  on 
a  better  understanding,  so  is  it  between 
nations. 

Members  of  our  association  have 
taken — I  say  have  taken — definite  steps 
to  make  certain  that  every  film  that  goes 
from  this  country  abroad,  wherever  it 
shall  be  sent,  shall  correctly  portray  to 
the  world,  the  purposes,  the  ideals,  the 
accornplishments,  the  opportunities,  and 
the  life  of  America.  We  are  going  to 
sell  America  to  the  world  with  American 
motion  pictures.  I  do  not  have  to  sug- 
gest to  you  the  value  of  this  in  improv- 
ing our  international  relationships.  The 
possibilities  are  as  great  as  all  the  to- 
morrows. Immediate  understandings 
with  many  of  the  foreign  countries  have 
to  be   worked   out   to  protect   us   against 


the  exploitation  abroad  of  stolen  films, 
and  in  all  these  matters  our  own  State 
Department    is    cooperating    splendidly. 

Work  of  Committee  on  Public  Relations 

I  would  not  fail  to  refer  to  the  work 
of  the  Committee  on  Public  Relations, 
which  consists  of  the  heads  of  80 
nationally  organized  associations  for  bet- 
ter things,  such  as  Boy  Scouts,  Girl 
Scouts,  Y.  M.  C.  A.,  Camp  Fire  Girls, 
Parent-Teachers  Association,  etc.,  etc. 
Chambers  of  Commerce,  American  Fed- 
eration of  Labor,  etc.,  etc.  This  is  a 
most  interesting  and,  I  am  sure,  profit- 
able arrangement.  Following  a  meeting 
last  summer  of  the  heads  of  these  associa- 
tions with  me  at  which  a  committee  of 
three  was  elected  to  aid  in  the  selection 
of  an  executive  committee  of  twenty, 
such  committee  of  twenty  has  been 
formed  with  their  own  executive  secre- 
tary, who  is  in  our  office  as  the  point  of 
contact.  This  executive  committee  of 
twenty,  meeting  frequently,  are  actually 
pre-viewing  pictures  and  are  making  sug- 
gestions to  our  producers,  bringing  to  the 
industry  an  inestimable  value  of  brain 
and  heart  that  could  not  be  hired  at  any 
price,  telling  the  producers  what  in  their 
opinion  are  the  needs,  as  well  as  the 
wants,  of  the  members  of  the  great 
organization  which  they  represent,  and 
they  represent  a  total  membership  of 
over  12,000,000 — constructively  suggesting 
betterments  in  the  pictures  and  giving 
sympathetic  encouragement  and  advice  to 
the  producers  that  reaches  right  back  to 
the  studio  with  a  measurable  influence  on 
the  productions  as  they  shall  come  out. 
And  then  as  the  good^  pictures  are  pro- 
duced these  representatives  send  tlic  word 
to  their  organizations  which  will  _  bring 
the  support  to  which  such  better  pictures 
are  entitled.  Think  of  the  value  of  this 
influence  which  is  constantly  exerted, 
quietly  and  constructively,  and  how 
effective  must  be  the  association  which 
these  men  and  women  are  establishing 
with  the  control  of  the  production  in  this 
country. 

Working  With  Exhibitors 

Our  organization  of  producers  and  dis- 
tributors has  had  many  conferences  with 
exhibitors,  bringing  a  closer  cooperation 
and  confidence  and  has  had  splendid  help 
from  them,  without  which  our  whole 
eflfort  would  fail.  Just  as  other  phases 
of  the  industry,  in  the  rapidity  of  its 
development,  have  not  been  worked  out 
in  the  fullest  way,  so  has  it  been  necessary 
to  give  attention  to  a  better  relationship 
with  the  exhibitor,  who  is  the  buyer  of 
the  product  which  the  manufacturer,  the 
producer,  makes — a  practical  improve- 
ment, but  definitely  necessary  to  bring 
the  maximum  functioning  of  the  industry's 
whole  eflfort,  because  without  the  co- 
operation of  all  branches  the  largest  suc- 
cess is  not  possible. 


It  has  taken  over  $20,000,000  in 
at  the  box  office. 


It  is  the  greatest  motion  picture 
property  of  all  time! 

It  is  every  great  picture  rolled 
into  one! 


Wait  till  you  hear  Avho  will  direct 
it! 


Goldwyn  is  producing  it! 


In  addition  to  these  efforts  for  new 
usefulness,  we  should  not  be  unmindful 
of  such  things  as  have  been  accomplished 
in  connection  with  better  amusement 
pictures.  At  the  end  of  the  six  months 
period  since  the  organization  of  the  As- 
sociation, it  has  been  of  some  interest  to 
the  members  themselves  to  review  what 
has  been  attempted  and  to  invite  the 
attention  of  the  public  to  the  accounting. 
It  was  an  earnest  action  indeed  last  May 
when  the  producers  sent  orders  to  the 
studios  as  to  the  pictures  to  be  made  this 
summer  and  to  be  made  in  the  future, 
directing  that  above  all  things  else  the 
purposes  of  the  Association  be  foremost. 
It  means  very  much  for  the  general  good 
when  these  men  who  had  the  vision,  the 
industry,  the  nerve,  if  you  will,  to  have 
made  this  thing  what  it  is  in  twenty  years, 
now  make  it  their  chief  business  to  estab- 
lish and  maintain  the  highest  moral  and 
artistic  standards. 

Beginning  a  new  drive  this  year  for  the 
best  possible  pictures,  measuring  up 
toward  what  the  standard  should  be  and 
which  many  pictures  already  had  achieved, 
earnestly  asking  the  public's  cooperation 
and  hoping,  of  course,  from  every  possible 
standpoint,  selfish  and  unselfish,  to  move 
in  the  right  direction,  they  have  brought 
out,  and  are  bringing  out,  a  series  of  pic- 
tures which  we  are  hoping  will  attract 
the  public's  attention,  as  the  evidence 
both  of  their  good  faith  and  their  ability 
to  accomplish,  and  as  an  augury  for  still 


better  things  to  which  their  every  effort 
shall  be  directed.  The  maintaining  of 
the  highest  standard  is  quite  as  essential 
as  its  attainment  and  there  can  be  and 
will  be  no  slipping  backward,  nor  loss  of 
any  improvement  that  may  be  accom- 
plished. These  pictures  are  being  re- 
ceived in  appreciation,  and  the  public  will 
not  be  unmindful  either  of  the  impossi- 
bility of  pleasing  every  one  with  every 
picture  or  the  necessity  of  different  types 
of  pictures  for  the  various  types  of  taste 
and  interest. 

What  Pictures  Can  Do 

I  have  come  to  visualize  this  great  new 
thing  as  my  attachment  to  it  becomes 
deeper — I  have  come  to  know  it  as  a 
great,  unbelievably  great,  three  fold  in- 
strument for  good.  It  can  do  three  great 
things  and  it  will  do  these  three  things 
as  no  other  instrument  that  I  know  of 
can  do  them. 

In  the  first  place  it  can  and  will  fill 
a  necessity — the  necessity  for  entertain- 
ment. 

In  the  second  place,  it  can  and  will 
instruct — which  is  indeed  a  most  precious 
power. 

In  the  third  place,  and  I  am  sure  that 
my  enthusiasm  does  not  warp  my  judg- 
ment, it  will  do  more  than  any  other 
existing  agency  to  unite  the  peoples  of  the 
world — to  bring  understanding  between 
men  and  women,  and  between  nation  and 
nation,  than  which  no  greater  thing  can 
be  done. 


"The  Romantic  History  of  Motion  Pictures" 

(Through  the  courtesy  of  Terry  Ramsaye,  the  author,  and  the  publishers  of  "Photo- 
play Magazine.'    pre  presented  excerpts  from  this  remarkable  and  unusual  document.) 

In  April,  1922,  when  the  first  article  appeared,  it  was  anticipated  that  it  might  run 
through  six  or  seven  issues.  The  December  issue  found  the  material  far  from  exhausted, 
however,  bringinp:  the  history  only  to  the  period  of  about  1902. 

It  is  suggested,  therefore,  that  this  material  be  re- 
tained in  conjunction  with  the  excerpts  of  the  remainder 
of  the  "History"  to  be  published  by  Photoplay  during 
1923,  which  will  be  found  in  the  next  volume  of  The 
Film  Year  Book. 

Our  beginning  is  the  year  of  1888,  and  the  place  is 
the  experimental  laboratories  of  Thomas  A.  Edison. 

Two  years  before,  in  1886,  Edward  Muybridge, 
one  of  many  investigators  who  had  attained  some  prom- 
ising success  with  his  experimental  work  in  recording 
motion,  had  called  upon  Edison.  Muybridge  had  made 
some  pictures  of  a  running  horse,  taken  with  a  row  of 
cameras,  in  California.  He  had  arrived  at  an  instru- 
ment for  showing  these  pictures,  producing  in  a  highly 
limited  way  a  sort  of  an  illusion  of  motion.  He  called 
it  the  "Zoopraxoscope."  He  showed  these  pictures  to 
Edison.

Edison  was   not  yet  ready   to   take  up 
any  new  problems.     At  this  time  he  was 
r      very  busy  with  work  on  the  phonograph. 
I  *     *     * 

In  1888  a  period  of  something  like  re- 
laxation in  Edison's  busy  career  arrived. 
He  had  done  great  things.  The  phono- 
graph was  a  definite  commercial  success, 
even  though  not  entirely  perfected.  Also 
earnings  were  coming  in  from  his  electric 
light  and  power  enterprises  at  a  consider- 
able rate.     There  was  time  to  play. 

*  *     * 

After  some  preliminary  consideration 
Edison  called  to  him  a  capable  young 
Englishman,  who  had  been  on  his  staff 
of  workers  and  researchers  for  several 
years,  W.  K.  L.  Dickson,  a  name  to  recur 
often  and  significantly  in  the  first  ten 
years  of  the  motion  picture. 

M\'sterious  Room  Five  at  the  Edison  lab- 
oratories at  West  Orange,  Edison's  favor- 
ite spot,  was  selected  as  the  workshop  for 
the  picture  experiments.  Room  Five  was 
under  lock  and  watch  day  and  night. 
There  was  a  little  wicket  in  the  door  where 
materials  could  be  passed  in  or  word 
given  out.  Only  Dickson  and  Edison 
came  and  went  at  first.  Then  presently 
one  or  two  other  workers  were  called 
at  times  to  do  their  little  bit  and  go.  No 
one  ventured  there  unless  he  were  called. 

*  *     * 

By  early  autumn  in  1888,  the  work  had 
gone  far  enough  to  lead  Edison  to  seek 
what  protection  there  might  be  in  the 
patent  office  by  the  filing  of  a  caveat. 
A  caveat  was  a  process,  now  no  longer 
in  use,  by  which  an  inventor,  having  con- 
ceived an  idea,  could  establish  certain 
rights  of  priority  and  protection  pending 
the  working  out  of  the  project. 

*  *     * 

Other  experimenters  were  busy.  Wal- 
lace Gould  Levison,  in  Brooklyn,  was 
working  with  glass  photographic  plates 
on  a  wheel.  Dr.  E.  J.  Marey,  in  Paris, 
was  making  progress  with  a  glass  disc 
in  a  "photographic  gun."  Louis  Aime 
Augustin  Le  Prince,  in  Leeds,  England, 
was  striving  with  a  many-lensed  camera 
and  strips  of  sensitized  paper.  In  Ger- 
many, Anschutz,  an  optical  worker,  was 
experimenting  in  the  same  direction. 

*  *     * 

Edison,  who  kept  himself  rather  well 
informed,  recognized  at  once  the  short- 
comings of  these  materials.  He  was  to 
go  an  independent  way. 

But  the  impress  of  the  phonograph  idea 
was  deep,  and  it  is  with  no  surprise  that, 
now  after  years  we  are  permitted  to  sur- 
vey the  secrets  of  Room  Five,  we  find 
Edison's  first  motion  picture  efforts  con- 
cerned with  trying  to  make  pictures  on 
what  was  practically  a  talking  machine 
cylinder. 


The  cylinder  machine  would  make  pic- 
tures, but  they  were  exceedingly  poor 
pictures. 

The  first  acting  for  the  motion  pictures 
took  place  before  that  absurd  little  phono- 
graph that  was  trying  to  be  a  camera. 

The  First  Actor 
And  the  first  actor  was  Fred  Ott,  a 
mechanic  and  member  of  the  staff,  chosen 
because  he  was  the  jester  of  the  works. 
There  were  two  Otts  on  the  staff,  John 
F.  and  Fred.  And  since  Fred  was  the 
first  of  all  motion  picture  actors,  it  is 
perhaps  an  obligation  to  history  to  set 
down  how  he  happened  ther' . 

«      4>      * 

Mr.  Ott,  first  of  all  screen  stars,  has 
officially  told  his  own  story  of  how  be 
behaved  before  the  camera  on  those  his- 
toric occasions.  The  authenticity  of  this 
is  guaranteed,  under  the  oath  of  Ott, 
sworn  as  a  witness  in  the  case  of  Thomas 
A.  Edison  vs.  The  American  Mutoscope 
and  Biograph  Company,  in  equity  No. 
8289,  before  the  day  of  pictures  press 
agents. 

"I  had  a  white  cloth  wound  around  me 
and  then  a  little  belt  to  tie  it  in  around 
the  waist  so  as  not  to  make  it  too  baggy — 
look  like  a  balloon — and  then  tied  around 
the  head;  and  then  I  made  a  monkey  of 
myself." 

So  the  motion  picture^  waa  born  in 
slapstick  comedy,  staged  in  that  solemn 
laboratory. 

*     *     * 

At  last  the  cylinder  motion  picture  was 
abandoned.  There  must  be  a  bigger  pic- 
ture, which  meant  other  methods.  Edi- 
son decided. 

Then  mysterious  Room  Five  started  to 
labor  with  attempts  at  some  surt  of  film. 
A  crude  and  flimsy  tape  of  collodion,  stuff 
like  the  liquid  courtplaster  that  one  puts 
on  a  cut  finger,  was  made.  It  was  rough 
and  fragile,  highly  imperfect,  but  good 
enough  to  prove  the  correctness  of  the 
principle  to  the  alert  Edison. 

There  were  many  more  notes  for  the 
laboratory  records. 

At  about  this  time  George  Eastman, 
who  conducted  a  business  of  manufactur- 
ing cameras  and  photomaterials,  was 
putting  out  kodaks  with  paper  films  in 
them.  Because  of  intricacies  of  the  pro- 
cess the  cameras  had  to  be  sent  into  the 
plant  at  Rochester  to  have  the  films  de- 
veloped and  the  camera  loaded  again. 
Eastman  knew  that  there  would  never 
be  a  big  amateur  business  on  that  basis. 
He  had  to  have  something  better  than 
those  complicated  paper  films.  Out  of 
his  quest  came  Eastman's  celluloid  film, 
the  kodak  material  of  today.  Edison,  now 
keeping  in  touch  with  things  photographic, 
dispatched  Dickson  to  Rochester  for  a 
sample. 

Edison  examined  the  film  in  Room 
Five.

"That'  is — we've  got  it — now  work  like 
hell." 

And  so  it  was  that  film  came  into  the 
motion  picture  industry.  This  was  early 
in  1889,  perhaps  a  year  after  Edison's 
beginning  on  the  problem. 

With  that  material  in  hand,  Edison 
knew  that  the  solution  of  the  picture 
puzzle  was  but  a  matter  of  details.  There 
were  tremendous  difi[iculties_  ahead,  but 
now  the  basic  quest  for  material  had 
ended.  *     *     * 

Among  those  early  day  itinerant  phono- 
graph entertainers  was  Lyman  Howe  of 
Wilkesbarre,  Pa.  On  a  circuit  through  the 
smaller  towns  of  his  territory  Howe  gave 
phonograph  entertainments  in  connection 
with  Ladies'  Aid  Societies  and  church 
boards,  dividing  the  profits  with  the 
churches.  He  was  pioneering  for  a  mo- 
tion picture  business  of  renown,  but  he 
little  suspected  it  then. 

At  about  the  same  time  over  in  Paris 
an  enterprising  Frenchman  heard  about 
the  wonderful  Edison  phonograph  that 
had  come  to  London.  He  was  busy,  but 
he  had  a  young  friend,  one  Charles  Pathe, 
who  had  little  to  do.  He  pressed  a  bundle 
of  francs  in  Pathe's  hand  and  told  him 
to  go  to  London  and  get  one  of  those 
talking   machines. 

*  *     * 

But  more  important  still  to  Pathe,  he 
established  a  contact  with  the  genius  of 
Edison  and  the  greater  thing  to  come. 

*  *     * 

Meanwhile  Edison  came  to  the  opinion 
that  after  all  secrecy  could  hardly  protect 
his  invention  much  longer,  and  so  August 
24,  1891,  he  made  application  for  a  United 
States  patent. 

How  $150   Not   Spent   Cost  Millions 

At  this  time  it  was  suggested  to  Edi- 
son, as  a  matter  of  routine,  at  least,  that 
perhaps  application  should  also  be  made 
for  foreign  patents,  including  France  and 
England. 

"How  much  will  that  cost?"  Edison 
asked  casually. 

"Oh,  about  $150." 

Edison  waived  the  suggestion  aside. 

"It  isn't  worth  it." 

But  if  Edison,  on  that  day  in  August 
of  1891,  had  said  "Yes,"  he  would  have 
put  himself  in  a  position  to  get  many, 
many  millions  of  dollars  in  the  foreign 
field.  Also  he  might  have  withheld  from 
a  number  of  European  opportunists  a 
temptation  to  what  may  have  been  a 
lawful  but  an  unmoral  piracy. 

*  *     * 

The  application  for  the  patent  for  the 
kinetoscope  was  filed,  the  article  goes  on 
to  say. 

In  December  of  1892,  the  photographic 
work  in  connection  with  this  young  kineto- 
scope demanded  a  building  for  itself — 
the  first  motion  picture  studio  in  the 
world. 


So  work  was  started  on  a  curious  struc- 
ture, the  like  of  which  had  never  been 
seen  before.  It  was  a  little  house  of 
light  timbers  and  black  light-proof  tar 
paper,  built  on  a  turn  table.  The  speed 
of  photographic  materials  and  camera 
lenses  was  much  lower  then  than  now  and 
the  snapshots  for  the  kinetoscope  had  to 
be  made  in  full  light.  There  were  thirty 
to  forty  pictures  a  second  then.  There- 
fore, the  building  was  pivoted  so  that  the 
tiny  stage  could  always  be  turned  to  catch 
the  sun,  regardless  of  the  hour  of  day. 
This  little  studio  has  survived  in  history 
as  "The  Black  Maria." 

The  "Black  Maria,"  then  known  offi- 
cially as  the  "revolving  photographic 
building,"  on  the  Edison  account  books, 
was  completed  February  1,  1893,  at  a  total 
cost  of  $637.67.  The  making  of  motion 
pictures  for  ultimate  public  presentation 
was  begun  in  that  building.  All  picture 
making  before  that  had  been  but  the 
simplest  of  laboratory  work  for  the  test- 
ing of  the  machines. 

Early  in  1893,  the  kinetoscope  was 
shown  to  a  scientific  gathering  at  the 
Brooklyn  Institute,  and  not  long  thereafter 
it  was  presented  to  the  public  for  the 
first  time  as  an  exhibit  at  the  Columbian 
Exposition,  greatest  of  the  world's  fairs, 
held  at  Chicago.  With  this  exhibition, 
trivial  as  it  seemed  then,  the  greater 
events  of  the  history  of  the  motion  pic- 
ture  had   their  beginning. 

There  were  a  number  of  devices  at  the 
World's  Fair  that  indicated  how  close 
the  motion  picture  was  then  crowding  its 
way  forward  into  a  part  in  the  world's 
affairs.  Among  them  was  Muybridge's 
"Zoopraxoscope"  and  a  machine  rather 
closely  related  to  it,  called  the  "Tachy- 
scope." 

(Ramsaye  tells  of  how  J.  Hunter  Armat, 
his  brother,  Tom,  Grey  Latham,  all  names 
of  importance  in  the  early  days  of  the 
development,  after  seeing  the  machine  at 
the  World's  Fair,  became  interested  in 
the  idea.) 

By  this  time  the  Edison  machine  was 
rather  automatically  forcing  its  own 
career.  A  firm  of  promoters  and  ex- 
ploiters. Raff  and  Gammon,  headed  by 
Norman  C.  Raff,  became  the  Edison 
agents  for  the  kinetoscope  with  a  plan 
for  putting  it  before  the  public  through 
the  sale  of  the  territorial  or  state  rights 
on  the  exhibition  of  the  machine.  The 
year  1894  had  arrived. 

Through  the  instrumentality  of  Raff 
and  Gammon,  the  kinetoscope  slot  rna- 
chines  were  to  cover  the  world  with 
arcade  peep  shows  and  swiftly  open  the 
way  for  the  coming  of  the  real  motion 
picture— the  picture  projected  on  a  screen. 

By  April  1,  1894,  twenty-five  kineto- 
scopes  had  been  manufactured  at  a  total 
cost  of  $1,227.48,  and  on  April  6,  ten  of 
them  were  shipped  across  the  Hudson  to 
Holland    Brothers,   at    1155    Broadway,  in

New  York  City,  the  first  customers  of 
Raff  and  Gammon.  A  week  later  the  filnis 
for  the  machines  went  forward.  By  this 
time  Edison  had  invested  a  total  of 
$24,118.04  in  the  motion  picture  business. 
In  the  next  few  years  millions  were  to 
come  back  to  him,  and  others  who 
capitalized  the  opportunities  opened  by  his 
efforts  were  to  gather  a  great  many  mil- 
lions more. 

Ramsaye  tells  of  how  Grey  Latham  and 
Enoch  J.  Rector  used  the  kinetoscope  to 
take  1,000  feet  of  film  showing  a  fight 
arranged  between  Mike  Leonard  and  Kid 
Gushing.  The  film  was  shown  in  a 
"peep    show"    plan    in    New    York    and 

coined  money. 

*     *     * 

S'O  it  came  that  one  day  in  that  fall 
of  '94  Otway  Latham  prevailed  on  his 
father  to  come  to  the  little  shov/  down 
at  83  Nassau  Street. 

"You  see,  if  we  could  project  that  on 
a  screen,  like  the  slides  in  a  stereopticon, 
there'd  be  a  fortune  in  it."  The  young 
man  was  anxious  to  enlist  his  father's 
scientific  aid.  Empiricism  could  go  no 
farther  in  this  v/ork. 

"You  can  project  anything  on  a  screen 
that  you  can  see  with  the  naked  eye  and 
that  can  be  photographed."  Woodville 
Latham  was  very  positive  in  his  answer. 
He  was  also  correct. 

The  vision  of  the  motion  picture  theater 
was  then  before  them. 

They  set  to  work  to  attain  it. 

The  making  of  the  motion  picture, 
which  entertains  twenty  million  people  a 
day  in  the  United  States  alone,  had 
begun. 

(At  this  point  Ramsaye  saj^s  Edison  did 
not  build  a  projection  machine  because 
he   did   not  think  it  worth  while.) 

With  the  completion  of  the  kineto- 
scope, Edison  paused.  The  next  step, 
the  step  to  the  screen,  so  little  to  take 
and  so  great  in  its  result,  was  left  to 
others.  It  was  as  though  Edison  had 
exposed  the  ore  of  a  gold  mine  and  left 
it  for  any  one  who  came  along  to  dig. 


*     *     * 


Among  others  early  to  acquiie  kineto- 
scopes  along  with  the  Lathams,  were  the 
two  Greek  speculators,  who  had  seen  the 
machine  at  the  World's  Fair.  They 
hastened  away  to  London  with  it  and 
sought  the  services  of  Robert  W.  Paul,  a 
mechanic  famed  for  his  skill.  Paul  had 
his  workshop  at  the  top  of  a  three  story 
brick  tJiructure,  at  44  Haddon  Garden,  in 
the  midst  of  a  busy  district  of  minor 
manufacturers.  There  they  took  the 
kinetoscope  and  asked  Paul  to  make  them 
many  duplicates  of  it.     They  saw  money. 

Being  a  person  of  principle  and  caution 
Paul  made  inquiries,  and  found  that  the 
Edison  machine  and  its  wonder  of  living 
pictures  had  not  been  patented  in  the 
United  Kingdom.  This  obviously  left 
him  legally  free  to  execute  the  orders  of 


his  clients.  So  the  duplicate  kinetoscopes 
were  made.  The  enterprising  Greeks  wcit 
out  to  startle  Europe  with  their  pictures. 
Meanwhile  Mr.  Paul  poceeded  to  make 
many  more  of  these  machines  on  his  own 
account  and  disposed  of  them  to  a  swiftly 
growing  trade 

Ramsaye  tells  of  how  Louis  Lumire, 
of  Paris,  was  working  to  wed  the  kineto- 
scope to  the  magic  lantern;  of  Charles 
Francis  Jenkins,  a  government  stenog- 
rapher "was  tinkering  with  photographic 
experiments  and  developing  a  growing 
interest  in  the  kinetoscope,"  and  how 
later  Jenkins  met  Tom  Armat  and  they 
went  into  partnership.  H.-  tells  of  how 
Dickson  experimented  at  Coluinhia  Uni- 
versity in  1894  working  on  an  improved 
camera  and  failed.  Dickson  later  became 
interested  with  the  Latham'L'  in  their 
screen  experiments  and  later  there  de- 
veloped the  row  between  Latham  and 
Edison.  Meanwhile  the  Latham's  staged 
another  fight,  between  Battling  Barnett 
and  Young  Griffo.    Says  Ramsaye. 

First  Picture  Run  On  Broadway 

May  20,  1895,  the  Griffo-Barnett  fight 
went  on  exhibition  to  the  public  at  153 
Broadway.  It  ran  its  flickering  way  in 
about  four  minutes. 

So  the  motion  picture  opened  for  the 
first  of  all  first  runs  on  Broadway.  How 
far  was  that  little  four  minute  picture  on 
the  magic  lantern  sheet  in  a  storeroom 
from  today's  motion  picture  mag- 
nificences of  upper  Broadway,  with  its 
multi-million   dollar   screen   theaters! 

Simultaneously  with  that  opening  on 
lower  Broadway  the  Lambda  company 
started  its  commercial  career  by  offering 
for  sale  state  rights  on  the  use  of  their 
projection  machine.  The  Lathams  started 
to  build  a  number  of  machines  and  to 
make  pictures  to  be  shown  on  the  new 
born   screen. 

The  beginning  had  been  made.  This 
was  the  founding  of  the  motion  picture 
industry.  Potential  millions  of  profits 
were  waiting. 

At  this  point,  Ramsay  presents  a  very 
interesting  "box"  captioned  "Historical 
Firsts,"  reading  as  follows: 


The  first  motion  picture  romance,  in 
which  handsome  Grey  Latham  of 
Broadway  found  Rose  O'Neill,  a  Mis- 
souri beauty,  and  brought  her  to  New 
York  to  be  his  bride. 

The  first  motion  picture  exhibitor 
and  states  rights  buyer,  LeRoy  La- 
tham, a  nephew  of  Woodville  Latham, 
inventor  of  the  eidoloscope,  who  gave 
the  first  "store  show"  entertainment 
exclusively  of  films,  in  Norfolk,  Vir- 
ginia, in  1895. 

The  first  appearance  in  the  amuse- 
ment world  of  the  late  Bert  Williams 
as  a  minstrel  in  the  employ  of  William 
Selig's  wagon  show  in  California.

The  first  motion  picture  presentation 
based  on  a  popular  song,  "The  Side- 
walks of  New  York,"  pictured  by  the 
Lathams  in  New  York. 

The  first  motion  picture  advertising 
man,  Henry  Southall,  a  colored  boy, 
who  urged  a  handbill  campaign  on  Le- 
Roy  Latham. 

The  first  vaudeville  act  in  a  picture 
show,  when  Jack  McConaughey,  a  cir- 
cus clown,  padded  the  Latham  show 
at  Newport  News,  Va.,  with  poses  of 
"ebony  statuary." 

The  first  Selig  zoo,  consisting  of  one 
Belgian  hare,  used  by  Colonel  Selig  in 
the  famous  rabbit-out-of-the-hat  piece 
of  parlor  magic. 


How  William  N.  Selig,  a  travelling 
showman  and  also  a  magician,  got  into 
the  business  is  related,  and  also  tells  how 
George  K.  Spoor,  then  running  a  one 
night  stand  show  in  Waukegan,  became 
interested  in  Edward  Amet's  inventions. 
Spoor  financed  Amet  "on  a  basic  invest- 
ment of  $65."  That  was  in  1895.  Ram- 
say says  that  Spoor's  fortune  in  1922  was 
"something  betw-een  seven  and  ten  mil- 
lion."    Incidentally,  the  meeting  between 


Amet  and  Spoor  led  to  the  development 
"of  the  one  time  powerful  Essanay  con- 
cern in  Chicago." 

First  States  Right  Sale 

In  this  chapter  Ramsay  draws  atten- 
tion to  the  fact  that  the  purchase  of  the 
Virginian  territory  by  LeRoy  Latham^ 
for  the  rights  to  use  the  eidoloscope,  frorn 
Woodville  Latham  for  $3,000,  constituted 
the  first  states  right  sale  in  the  film  busi- 
ness. This  show  opened  in  Norfolk  in 
June,  1895,  and  Henry  Southall,  colored,, 
through  distributing  the  hand  bills  in- 
forming the  public  of  the  show,  thus,  ac- 
cording to  Ramsay,  "became  the  motion 
picture's  first  advertising  man."  South- 
all's  salary  was  50  cents  a  day,  and  his, 
duties  included  besides  the  distributing  of 
the  hand  bills,  usher,  janitor,  door-man,, 
electrician,  part  of  the  orchestra,  and  in- 
cidentally a  valet  to  LeRoy  Latham. 


From  April  to  August  in  1895,  inven- 
tions of  picture  projection  machines  came 
fast.  Priority  became  a  matter  of  weeks 
and  days,  and  when  in  later  years  rival 
claimants  came  to  do  battle  in  the  courts.

and  in  controversies  in  the  press  it  nar- 
rowed down  almost  to  a  matter  of  hours. 
Hence  it  has  been  with  the  utmost  diffi- 
culty and  the  most  tedious  attention  to 
contemporary  records  of  corroboration 
that  the  facts  of  this  history  have  been 
established.  As  pointing  to  the  condition 
of  motion  picture  annals  and  their  color- 
ing by  the  ardent  partisanship  of  con- 
testants for  glory,  it  may  be  remarked 
that  most  of  the  records  of  past  years 
are  strewn  with  conscious  and  unconscious 
falsehood.  An  example  of  vivid  signifi- 
cance is  afforded  among  the  archives  of 
picture  patent  litigation  in  a  drawing 
sworn  to  have  been  made  in  1890,  on  a 
piece  of  paper  manufactured  in  1894,  as 
shown  by  the  watermark. 
*     *     * 

Looking  into  an  old  Edison  catalogue 
one  hnds  among  the  picture  players  of 
1895  some  famous  names.  There  was 
Dolorita,  "the  passion  dancer,"  they  called 
her,  and  Annie  Oakley,  the  celebrated  trap 
shooter,  whose  skill  and  grace  with  the 
shotgun  thrilled  a  decade  and  a  half  of 
audiences  at  the  Wild  West  shows.  Pro- 
fessor Batty  with  his  famous  trained 
bears.  Layman,  "the  man  of  a  thousand 
faces,"  and  the  Englehart  Sisters,  broad- 
sword performers.  All  of  them  appeared 
in  little  pictures  of  from  thirty-five  to 
fifty  feet  in  length — less  than  one  two- 
hundredth  part  as  long  as  the  typical  mo- 
tion   picture    feature    drama    of    1922. 

None  of  these  pictures  will  ever  be  seen 
again.  The  negatives  were  utterly  worn 
out  in  the  making  of  kinetoscope  prints. 

The  First  Close-up — A  Sneeze 

At  this  point  Ramsaye  points  out  that 
the  sneeze  of  Fred  Ott  in  the  kinetoscope 
was  the  first  close-up  ever  shown  in  pic- 
tures, and  that  in  addition  the  first 
scenario  was  "born"  in  this  action.  He 
also  records  of  how  Bert  Acres,  working 
in  the  Paul  plant  in  London  succeeded 
in  making  a  projector  that  worked.  Says 
Ramsaye: 

His  pictures,  like  Edison's  early  films, 
were  taken  at  the  rate  of  forty  exposures 
a  second.  His  subjects  included  boxers, 
a  naval  review  at  Kiel,  racing  at  Epsom 
Downs  serpentine  dancing  and  pictures 
of  waves  on  the  coast — the  sort  of  things 
that  were  to  be  staple  standards  of  the 
motion  picture  screen  for  a  whole  ten 
3'ears   or  more. 

The  Paul  workshop  in  the  fall  of  1895 
brought  in  a  name  that  still  survives  in 
the  motion  picture  industry  —  Cecil 
Hepworth,  who  invented  a  new  type 
of  electric  arc  lamp,  one  that  could 
be  operated  by  a  handfeed  instead  of  the 
automatic  feed  of  older  types.  This  en- 
abled the  operator  of  an  arc  used  for 
projection  to  continually  trim  his  light 
and  keep  the  glowing  crater  of  the  arc 
properly  centered  behind  the  slides  in  the 
projection  lantern. 


Over  in  France,  Louis  Lumiere,  or 
rather  the  brothers  A  and  L.  Lumiere, 
developed  yet  another  motion  picture  pro- 
jection device  and  at  such  an  early  date 
that  they  are  probably  the  closest  in 
point  of  dates  to  ihe  work  of  the  Lathams 
■n  New  York.  Henry  V.  Hopwood  s  work 
entitled  "Living  Pictures,"  written  not 
long  after,  says  ttiat  ilie  Lumieres  hied 
application  for  patents  in  France  Febru- 
rary  13,  1895  and  in  England  April  8,  of 
the  same  year. 

These  dates,  it  will  be  recalled,  are 
close  upon  those  of  the  laboratory  suc- 
cesses of  the  Lathams.  The  filing  of 
applications  for  patents  and  the  physical 
matter  of  reduction  to  practice  are  dif- 
ferent matters,  however.  Louis  Ducos  du 
Hauron  applied  for  letters  patent  on  the 
wlioleidea  of  the  motion  picture  back  in 
the  60's,  but  he  never  became  a  real  part 
of  motion  picture  history  because  he 
never  did  anything  more  than  think 
about  It. 

*  *     * 

The  Lumiere  device  was  named  by 
them  the  "cinematographe."  The  name 
is  w'orthy  of  note  because  it  survives  in 
motion  picture  parlance  as  cinema  or  kine- 
ma  all  over  the  world,  while  the  device 
Itself  disappeared  twenty  years  ago  and 
the  name  of  Lumiere  is  as  unknown  to  the 
film  industry  today  as  Latham. 

For  the  sake  of  completing  the  record 
note  IS  to  be  made  also  of  th  fact  that 
one  Muller,  a  German  inventor,  applied 
for  a  patent  on  a  projection  machine  in 
Germany,  in  August  of  1895.  But  there 
IS  no  evidence  that  his  machine  developed 
into  anything  affecting  the  course  of 
the  art. 

To  dispose  of  a  frequent  source  of  cavil- 
ing letters  whenever  any  discussion  of 
film  history  is  published,  it  is  now  pointed 
cut  that  the  work  of  Friese  Greene,  an 
English  experimenter  often  cited  as  "the 
father  of  motion  pictures"  did  not  in  fact 
figure  in  the  development  and  application 
of  the  principles  that  make  the  motion 
picture.  He  did  have  a  notion  of  making 
pictures  in  sequence. 

*  *     * 

At  this  point  Ramsaye  introduces 
Henry  Norton  Marvin  of  the  Martin  & 
Casler  Company,  of  Canastota,  N.  Y., 
"a  concern  devoted  to  scientific  work  and 
experimental  machinery."  Marvin  bought 
from  a  toy  vendor  one  of  the  little  batches 
of  views  joined  together— the  old  zoetrope 
idea,  and  suggested  to  Casler  to  make 
a  machine  to  flip  the  views  faster,  thus 
making  a  simpler  machine  than  the  kineto- 
scope. They  worked  out  the  invention. 
This  machine,  says  Ramsaye,  gave  the 
same  effect  as  the  kinetoscope  machine 
at  vastly  less  cost  and  without  all  the 
intricate  mechanism  of  the  Edison  device. 
This  machine  was  the  first  model  of  the 
"Mutoscope,"  a  peep  show  machine  that 
made  history.

IN  PREPARATION  ANOTHER  BIG  SPECTACLE

Marvin  and  Casler  assumed  that  they 
would  be  able  to  get  the  pictures  for  their 
machines  from  the  Edison  establishment. 
By  chance  in  this  period  Marvin  met  his 
old  friend  Dickson,  tnen  still  with  Edison. 
When  he  broached  the  subject  of  pictures 
from  the  kinetoscope  for  the  newly  inven- 
ted mutoscope  Dickson  shook  his  head. 
He  knew  Edison  and  he  knew  Gilmore, 
Edison's  general  manager.  Inquiry  at  the 
Edison  offices  swiftly  contirmed  Dickson's 
opinion.  No  kinetoscope  pictures  could 
be  had  for  any  such  purpose. 

This  put  the  inventors,  Marvin  and  Cas- 
ler, immediately  against  the  necessity  of 
making  their  own  motion  pictures. 

Right  then  and  there  was  the  motion 
picture's  big  moment.  Out  of  that 
moment  came  the  force  that  through  a 
long  dramatic  series  of  sequences  brought 
to  the  motion  picture  and  its  world  all  the 
glory,  that  was   liiograph. 

*  *     * 

Marvin  and  Casler  went  into  their 
laboratory  at  Canastota  and  set  about 
building  a  camera  that  could  supply  pic- 
tures lo  their  mutoscope  device.  It  was 
decided  that  since  the  little  Edison  films 
could  not  be  had  they  would  build  a 
camera  to  take  a  larger  and  more  satis- 
factory picture. 

They  determined  on  a  film  picture  two 
and  three  quarters  of  an  inch  wide  and 
two  inches  high,  giving  an  area  of  ap- 
proximately eight  times  that  of  the  pic- 
tures on  the   Edison   film. 

This  was  in  the  autum  of  1894.  The 
camera  they  built  remarkably  enough  was 
widely  different  from  the  Edison  machine 
in  every  detail,  save  that  it  used  Eastman 
filnj  as  a  photographic  medium. 

*  *     * 

In  April,  1895,  Marvin  and  Casler's 
machine  was  ready.  They  took  it  out 
of  doors  into  the  sunshine  and  staged  a 
boxing  bout  for  the  camera.  They  ground 
off  the  pictures.  That  night  they  de- 
veloped their  negative  and  found  it  satis- 
factory. They  had  recorded  a  motion 
picture  by  a  new  method.  The  future  of 
the    mutoscope    seemed    assured. 

Other  machines  had  to  be  invented  as 
parts  of  the  process,  among  them  develop- 
ing devices  and  a  printing  machine  to 
make  the  pictures  on  from  the  film  nega- 
tive  on   mutoscope    cards. 

The  further  problems  of  the  mutoscope 
business  appeared  to  be  therefore,  mainly 
photographic.  Marvin  looked  about  for 
a  man  who  could  contribute  photographic 
experience  to  the  work. 

And  now  again  comes  William  Kennedy 
Laurie  Dickson. 

(Ramsaye  tells  of  how  E.  B.  Koopman, 
a  promoter,  then  interested  in  the  Magic 
Introduction  Company,  was  brought  in 
and  the  famous  K.  M.  C.  D  Syndicate 
was  formed  on  Sept.  22,   1895.) 

The  night  of  April  23,  1896;  the  Edison 
Vitascope — Armat  design — went  into  ser- 


vice for  its  lirst  public  showing  at  Koster 
&  Bials'  Music  Hall,  at  34th  Street  and 
Broadway,  winch  is  now  a  part  of  the 
site  of  the  May  Department  Store.  It 
was  a  milestone  in  screen  history  that 
night.  All  the  theatrical  world  of  New 
York  was  in  that  audience.  They  wanted 
to   know   about   this    newcomer. 

In  the  projection  booth  up  on  the  bal- 
cony were  four  men,  also  names  to  re- 
member long  in  motion  picture  history. 
Thomas  Armat  was  in  charge  of  the  show- 
ing. James  H.  White,  who  was  destined 
to  figure  in  picture  production  for  years, 
Charles  Webster,  who  took  the  Vitascope 
into  Europe,  and  Percy  L.  Waters,  a 
motion  picture  executive  of  note  in  the 
affairs  of  many  concerns  from  the  General 
Film  Company  to  Triangle,  were  at  the 
projection  machines.  They  were  all  Raff 
&  Gammon  peep  show  experts  drafted  for 
this  screen  showing.  They  were  mere 
operators  then,  nowadays  known  as  pro- 
jectionists. 

The  pictures  shown  were  old  kineto- 
scope subjects  made  for  the  peep  show 
machines.  The  film  was  dull  and  merely 
translucent  with  a  ground  glass  finish  on 
the  blank  side.  With  the  most  power- 
ful arcs  the  pictures  were  dim  and  obscure 
as  compared  with  the  projection  of  today. 
They  were  wondertui  enough  then.  Anna- 
belle  danced  on  the  screen.  There  were 
pictures  of  the  English  Derby,  the  waves 
at  Atlantic  City  and  a  flash  of  a  boxing 
bout.  The  subjects  were  about  fifty  feet 
in   length,   each. 

The  late  Charles  Frohman  was  in  the 
audience  at  the  Koster  &  Bials'  showing 
that  first  night.  He  was  interviewed  at 
length  by  the  New  York  Times  the  fol- 
lowing day.  In  the  course  of  his  talk 
Mr.  Frohman  with  rare  vision  forecast  a 
great   future   for   the   motion  picture. 

"The  time  will  come,"  he  said,  "when 
all  scenery  on  the  stage  will  be  eliminated. 
The  actors  will  perform  in  front  of  a 
living  scene  thrown  on  the  stage  by  means 
of  these  motion  pictures." 

Mr.  Frohman  was  correct,  except  that 
he  did  not  foresee  that  the  actors  would 
be  projected  right  along  with  the  scenery. 

And  today— Charles  Frohman,  Inc.,  the 
theatrical  concern  standing  as  a  memorial 
to  his  genius,  is  in  effect  the  property  of 
Adolph  Zukor,  the  proprietor  of  a  little 
Chicago  fur  shop  then,  in  1896,  the  domi- 
nant motion  picture  figure  of  the  world 
in  1922. 

The  First  "Location" — Mexico 

The  first  effort  of  a  picture  company 
to  seek  "location"  came  in  1895,  when 
Otway  Latham  went  to  Mexico  to  "get" 
a  bull  fight  and  a  religious  festival.  Ram- 
saye then  records  the  downfall  of  the 
Latham's  and  the  entry  of  "Pop"  Rock, 
who  bought  the  Vitascope  rights  from 
Rock  &  Gammon  for  Louisiana.  There 
he  met   "Pop"   Lubin,  who  was  peddling

smoked  glasses  at  the  Mardi  Gras.  He 
also  presents  Jimmy  Blackton,  then  a 
cartoonist,  for  whom  Edison  had  a  great 
fondness,  and  Albert  E.  Smith  and 
Ronald  A.  Reader,  who  "were  disciples 
of  the  Great  Herrmann"  the  magician. 
He  also  tells  how  the  first  censorship 
came  when  the  Chicago  press  banned 
May  Irwin's  kiss.  He  points  out  that 
on  June  29,  1896,  the  Eden  Musee  and 
Keith's  Union  Square  presented  the  same 
program  of  motion  pictures,  for  the  first 
time  in  history;  and  how  T.  L.  Tally,  a 
cow  puncher,  seeing  a  Vitascope  show, 
got  into  the  business  in  Los  Angeles. 
Says   Ramsaye: 

Mr.  Tally  found  that  his  patrons  down 
in  Spring  Street  were  wary,  about  going 
into  a  darkened  room  to  see  pictures  on 
the  screen.  To  meet  this  condition  he 
fitted  up  a  partition  with  holes  in  it,  fac- 
ing the  projection  room  screen,  so  that 
patrons  might  peer  in  at  the  screen  while 
standing  in  the  comfortable  security  of 
the  well  lighted  phonograph  parlor.  A 
real  sport  could  put  the  phonograph  tubes 
to  his  ears  and  look  at  the  pictures  at 
the  same  time.  Three  peep  holes  were 
at  chair  level  for  seated  spectators,  and 
four  somewhat  higher  for  standees — stand- 
ing room  only  after  three  admissions,  total 
capacity  seven.  The  price  per  peep  holes 
was  fifteen  cents. 

The  Tally  showing  was  typical  of  the 

motion    picture    business    of   the    west    in 

that  period. 

*     *     * 

He  also  presents  Charles  Urban,  who 
in  1896,  was  a  book  agent,  and  later  in 
the  phonograph  business,  and  who,  with 
Walter  Isaacs  arranged  to  make  in  his 
New  York  shop  a  number  of  the  new 
hand-driven  projectors,  to  be  known  as 
the  Urban  Bioscope. 

Back  in  Detroit  Mr.  Urban  cut  loose 
from  the  Michigan  Electric  Company  and 
turned  to  selling  the  Bioscope.  This  ma- 
chine was  in  all  probability  the  first  of 
its  type,  which  soon  became  widely  dis- 
tributed. The  Bioscopes  went  as  fast  as 
they  could  be  delivered.  This  machine 
offered  the  possibility  of  taking  the  new 
motion  pictures  out  into  the  small  towns 
and  lumber  camps.  Dozens  of  "lecturers" 
went  out  equipped  with  Bioscopes  and 
a  stock  of  Edison  films,  which  Urban 
continued  to  handle. 

It  is  a  testimoni^  to  the  workmanship 
of  Mr.  Isaacs  thalSone  of  the  first  Bio- 
scopes is  still  in  service  in  the  private 
editing  room  of  the  Urban  establishment 
in  New  York,  at  the  Masonic  Temple, 
a  skyscraper  that  rises  but  a  fev/  doors 
away  from  the  site  where  Edison  films 
first  went  on  the  screen  back  in  1896. 
The  little  Bioscope  has  been  across  the 
Atlantic  twice  in  its  twenty-six  years,  and 
has  twenty-three  years  of  foreign  service 
to    its    credit,      It    has    outlived    a    half- 


dozen  film  corporations  and  with  a  drop 
of  oil  now  and  again  it  is  good  for  another 
quarter  of  a  century. 

*  *     * 

Later  Urban  joined  Maguire  &  Marcus, 
agents  for  Edison  films,  and  went  abroad 
for  them.  He  also  introduces  E.  S.  Por- 
ter, who,  after  three  years  in  the  Navy. 
got  a  job  from  Raff  &  Gammon,  as  a  pro- 
jectionist. Of  how  later  Porter  and 
Harry  Daniels  bought  the  rights  of  the 
Projectoscope  for  the  West  Indies  and 
made  a  big  hit  with  the  pictures  down 
that  way.  He  also  introduces  Col.  Wil- 
liam Selig,  who  then  working  at  43  Peck 
Court,  Chicago,  saying: 

The  early  Selig  pictures  were  made 
about  the  streets  of  Chicago  and  in  back 
yards  when  it  was  desirable  to  escape 
the   curious   passersby. 

In  this  same  '96,  George  Kleine,  under 
the  name  of  the  Kleine  Optical  Company, 
in  Chicago,  started  the  sale  of  projection 
machines  and  films.  He  sold  the  Armat 
projector  under  the  name  of  the  Magnis- 
cope,    and    the    new     Edison    Projecting 

Kinetoscope. 

*  *     * 

The  Edison  machine,  involving  me- 
chanical devices  similar  to  those  in  patent 
claims  of  Armat,  resulted  in  a  long  line 
of  litigations.  Armat  started  to  fight. 
He  was  still  fighting  in  1908  when  the 
famous  Motion  Picture  Patents  Company 
was  formed,  ending  the  controversy,  with- 
out a  final  adjudication  ever  coming  from 
the  courts.  Legally  the  issue  between 
Edison  and  Armat  will  never  be  settled. 
But  they  are  friends  today,  and  most 
recently  Mr.  Edison  has  commented  on 
the  Armat  Vitascope  as  the  "first  practical 
projecting  machine." 

*  *     * 

E.  B.  Koopman,  the  financier  of  the 
K.  M.  C.  D.  Syndicate,  which  fathered 
the  Biograph,  sold  stock  interests  in  the 
concern  to  many  important  people  in  the 
financial  world.  One  of  the  early  stock 
holders  was  Abner  McKinley,  a  brother 
of  the  candidate  for  the  presidency. 

And  to  the  American  Mutoscope  & 
Biograph  Company  at  this  time  goes  the 
credit  for  first  photographing  for  the  mo- 
tion pictures  a  world  famous  actor. 
Joseph  Jefferson  at  his  estate  at  Buzzard's 
Bay.  posed  for  the  camera  in  "Rip  Van 
Winkle."  The  pictures  were  presented 
both  on  the  screen  and  in  the  Mutoscope 
in  many  brief  parts,  each  separately  titled, 
as,  for  example,  "Rip's  Dream,"  "Rip's 
Awakening."  A  total  of  some  eight  or 
nine  such  snatches  of  drama  were  made 
with  the  distinguished  Mr.  Jefiferson 
performing. 

It  is  important  to  remember  that  the 
Biograph  was  using  the  picture  of  the 
same  large  size  as  the  Mutoscope  nega- 
tives, more  than  two  inches  wide  and  pro-

portionately  high.  This  consumed  eight 
times  as  much  film  in  the  recording  of 
any  given  action  as  the  smaller  Edison 
standard  films.  This  was  a  fact  of  vast 
importance  and  effect  in  future  develop- 
ments. 

The  Biograph  projector,  being  operated 
on  a  friction  drive  roller  principle,  like 
the  camera,  required  the  constant  atten- 
tion of  a  highly  skilled  operator.  The 
company  decided  on  a  policy  of  supplying 
Biograph  service  only.  No  machines, 
either  cameras  or  projectors  were  sold. 
The  great  widefilm  with  its  large  photo- 
graphic area  gave  an  excellent  quality  of 
picture,  probably  much  better  than  the 
Edison  film  product  of  the  day,  but  the 
Biograph  machines  were  far  from  fool 
proof.  Any  attempt  at  wide  distribution 
would  have  been  unwise.  It  would  also 
have  invited  infringements. 

In  this  period  William  Bitzer,  later 
famous  as  "Billy  Bitzer,  Griffith's 
cameraman"  entered  the  service  of  Bio- 
graph and  became  expert  with  the  com- 
plicated machines. 

Financing  Porter's  First  Projector 

Ramsaye  recounts  how  Porter,  re- 
turning from  the  West  Indies,  gave  the 
first  show  of  advertising  films  on  Broad- 
way, and  was  arrested  for  interfering 
with  traffic.  The  billboard  screen  faced 
34th  St.  and  Broadway.  Later,  records 
Ramsaye,  William  L.  Beadnell,  advertis- 
ing man  for  the  Eden  Musee,  financed 
the  building  of  the  first  Porter  projector, 
"the  ancestor  of  the  modern  Simplex 
projector."  He  also  records  of  how  a 
travelling  magician,  "The  Great  Victor," 
became  interested  in  pictures  and  opened 
Newark's  first  motion  picture  theater.  It 
was  the  late  summer  of  1897. 

Victor  canie  across  a  merchant  who 
had  under  lease  a  store  in  Market  Street, 
which  he  was  delayed  in  opening  while 
waiting  for  stock.  There  the  picture 
show  opened  with  an  Edison  Projecting 
Kinetoscope  and  a  miscellany  of  films, 
including  "The  Empire  S^ate  Express" 
and  "The  Baths  of  Milano."  The  the- 
ater boasted  two  hundred  seats,  and 
showed  at  an  admission  of  twenty-five 
cents.  But  it  proved  necessary  to 
strengthen  the  attraction  by  booking 
Bowman's  Military  Band.  There  was 
the  embryo  of  the  great  orchestra  idea 
of  picture  presentation  of  today. 

Some  weeks  later  the  show  closed  and 
became  the  first  of  the  now  nation-wide 
chain   of   Hilton   clothing  stores. 
*     *     * 

The  account  of  the  making  of  the 
"Passion  Play,"  by  Richard  G.  Holloman 
of  the  Eden  Musee  is  recorded,  and  the 
fight  with  Klaw  &  Erlanger,  who  also 
had  a  like  film.  Later  Col.  Henry  T. 
Hadley,  "a  spectacular  evangelist  of  the 
day,"  used  the  film  through  the  country. 
His  was  undoubtedly  the  first  use  of  the 


motion  pictures  for  propaganda,  says 
Ramsaye. 

He  records  that  Hadley's  son  is  "Hopp" 
Hadley,  well  known  in  New  York  picture 
circles. 

At  this  point  Ramsaye  tells  of  Smith 
and  Blackton  starting  together  and  mak- 
ing pictures  after   Smith  built  a  camera. 

*  *     * 

Thereupon  they  repaired  to  the  roof 
of  the  Morse  building  in  Nassau  Street, 
where  they  had  a  tiny  office,  and  pro- 
ceeded to  start  operations  on  a  subject 
to  add  to  their  program.  They  decided 
to  call  it  "The  Burglar  on  the  Roof." 
Mr.  James  Stuart  Blackton  took  the  role 
of  the  burglar,  the  title  role,  if  you 
please,  in  the  very  first  production  of  an 
institution  that  has  won  immortality  in 
picture  annals.  Mr.  Smith  as  the  me- 
chanical expert,  operated  the  camera. 
Ronald  A.  Reader,  their  prestidigitator 
friend,  and  Mrs.  Olaf  Olsen,  wife  of  the 
Morse  building  janitor,  completed  the 
cast.  The  picture  was  made  in  bits  at 
lunch  hours  when  the  members  of  the 
cast  had  time  from  their  work  to  appear 
at  the  "studio."  It  was  completed  in 
sixty-five  feet  and  ultimately  played  all 
the  "big  time"  in  the  United  States.  It 
was  an  episode,  rather  than  a  story,  but 
it     had     the     microscopic     germ     of     the 

modern  thriller.

How  Urban,  in  London,  developed  the 
Warwick  Trading  Company  and  made 
a  fortune  is  told. 

*  *     * 

In  France  in  the  year  of  '97  George 
Melies,  a  new  figure  and  factor  in  film 
production,  began  a  rapid  rise  with  a 
novelty  idea  of  introducing  to  the  screen 
tricks  of  magic.  Melies  had  been  a  stu- 
dent understudy  of  the  celebrated  Robert 
Houdin.  His  pictures  found  ready  sale. 
Charles  Urban  was  among  his  best  cus- 
tomers. In  the  United  States  Melie's 
subject  also  attained  an  early  popularity. 

American  picture  men  were  puzzled 
not  a  little  at  the  mysterious  results  on 
the  screen.  The  pictures  caught  on  and 
to  meet  the  demand  in  the  most  profit- 
able way,  it  must  be  admitted,  the 
Americans  copied  or  duplicated  the 
Melies  subjects  with  a  gracious  freedom. 
The  method  was  simple.  An  original 
subject  printed  by  Melies  was_  put 
through  the  printing  machine  with  a 
piece  of  negative  stock.  Thereby  a  nega- 
tive was  produced  from  which  any  num- 
ber of  "dupe"  prints  might  be  made. 
This  practice  grew  general  and  common- 
place in  the  industry  and  in  the  course 
of  two  years  came  to  be  one  of  its 
greatest  curses.  Trademark  and  copyright 
ultimately  came  to  check  the  abuses  of 
the  "dupers."  In  the  beginning  the  mo- 
tion picture  with  no  precedents  behind  it 
had  almost  none  of  the  rights  of  property-

How  Lyman  Howe  developed  his 
business,  and  how  Marvin  &  Casler  took 
the  first  prize  fight  pictures  ui  der  hghts, 
is  told  graphically,  and  how  the  Spanish 
American  war  offered  bait  to  the  picture 
makers  is  also  interestingly  recorded, 
especially  the  Edward  H.  Amet  picture 
of  the  sinking  of  Cervera's  fleet  at  San-

Picturizing  the   First   News   Event 

On  March  17,  1899.  the  Windsor  Hotel 
in  New  York  burned  and  forty-five  per- 
sons lost  their  lives.  Blackton  and  Smith 
covered  the  fire  with  their  camera,  getting 
short  bits  of  film  showing  the  burning 
ruins.  Probably  for  the  first  time  the 
motion  picture  camera  pictured  news  in 
the  process  of  happening. 

How  Rock  and  Smith  and  Blackton 
got  together  is  shown,  and  how  "Broncho 
Billy"  Anderson  was  hired  at  $2  a  day 
to  make  a  noise  like  a  locomotive  is  de- 
tailed by  Al  Harstn  (now  an  exhibitor 
in    Brooklyn). 

The  First  Back  Lighting 

Ramsaye  tells  of  how  Porter,  while 
photographing  the  Columbia-Shamrock 
boat  race  "shot"  against  the  sun.  Says 
the  author: 

Back  at  West  Orange  the  films  were 
rushed  through  the  laboratory  and  that 
night  prints  of  the  day's  race  went  on  the 
screen  on  Broadway.  The  Porter  yacht- 
ing pictures  were  a  revelation  of  photo- 
graphic beauty.  He  had  not  known  that 
photography  against  the  sun  was  impos- 
sible and  had  thereby  discovered  "back- 
lighting." 

The  pictures  were  filled  with  wondrous 
reflections,  the  gossamer  shadow  traceries 
of  the  sails  and  the  jewelled  highlights 
of  the  rippling  water.  It  was  a  new  photo- 
graphic realism.  Some  of  the  news  photo- 
graphers saw  the  films  that  night.  Porter 
got  along  better  on  the  referee's  boat  the 
next  day.  He  had  acquired  a  sudden  pro- 
fessional standing.  And  the  news  camera 
men  for  the  papers  and  magazines  were 
tentativeh^  trying  a  few  shots  against  the 
sun.  The  child  motion  picture  wns  teach- 
ing its  ancestor,  the  still  camera,  how  to 
make  pictures.  The  process  has  con- 
tinued ever  since. 

*  *     * 

All  of  the  many  legal  battles  that  start- 
ed about  this  time  are  recorded.  Also  of 
how  Wallace  McCutcheon,  Sr.,  was  em- 
ployed by  Biograph  as  really  the  first 
"director"  for  pictures  in  America. 

*  *     * 

How  the  motion  picture  reached  Alaska 
during  1899  is  then  told.  Tom  Crahan 
came  to  Edison  in  behalf  of  the  North- 
west Transportation  Company,  with  a 
line  of  boats  between  Puget  Sound  and 
Alaska.  He  wanted  motion  pictures  of 
the  country  made  for  general  promotional 
purposes.     Most   especially   they   were   to 


be  shown  at  the  Paris  Exposition  in  1900. 
And  he  wanted  a  wide  film. 

Robert  Bonine  is  recorded  as  the 
camerman  of  the  expedition.  Ramsaye 
then  tells  of  how  Harry  and  Herbert 
Miles,  Cincinatti  photograpliers,  reached 
Nome.  They  made  many  pictures  which 
were  sent  to  the  Biograph,  New  York, 
for  distribution.  Rex  Beach  is  recorded 
as  being  in  Nome  at  that  time,  as  well 
as  Jack  London,  and  Jesse  Lasky.  who 
had  grown  impatient  of  the  languors  of 
Hawaii  and  the  distinction  of  being  the 
only  white  man  in  the  Royal  Hawaiian 
band  at  Honolulu. 

In  Alaska,  Lasky  was  one  of  the  many 
who  found  gold  but  not  enough.  Leav- 
ing the  diggings  he  went  to  Dutch  Har- 
bor and,  with  a  rented  row-boat,  ferried 
passengers  from  ships  at  anchor.  Then 
with  a  hundred  dollar  push  cart  he  went 
into  the  baggage  business  at  twenty  dol- 
lars a  load.  Presently  between  freight- 
ing and  panning  gold  he  found  he  had 
enough  to  book  passage  home.  Ten  years 
of  experimenting  with  the  destiny  had  to 
pass  before  Lasky  was  to  join  the  industry 
of  the  "life  motion  pictures"  that  Miles 
Brothers  were  introducing  in  Nome. 

Back  in  New  York  important  develop- 
ments were  coming.  The  motion  picture 
WIS  on  the  verge  of  a  rebirth,  and  a 
greater  function  than  as  the  black  tent 
novelty  of  the  provinces  and  the  chaser 
of  the  vaudeville  show. 

The  synthetic  process  of  making  news 
pictures  as  begun  by  Blackton  and  Smith 
in  their  destruction  of  Cervera's  fleet  and 
by  Amet  with  the  same  subject  and  his 
"Execution  of  Six  Boxers"  was  growing 
bolder.  The  Edison  company  went 
naively  out  to  reproduce  the  Boer-British 
war,  which  was  occupying  a  large  and 
sympathetic  attention  in  the  United  States. 
James  H.  White,  of  the  kinetoscope  de- 
partment, was  the  general  in  charge  of 
military  operations.  The  w^ar  was  con- 
ducted with  several  handsome  stovepipe 
cannons  mounted  on  carriage  wheels  and 
a  pair  of  armies  of  Bowery  drifters  ar- 
rayed in  costumes  from  the  Eaves 
establishment. 

In  very  similar  fashion  Vitagraph  con- 
ducted a  war  of  its  own  across  the  veldt 
of  Long  Island.  In  this  year  of  1900  Vita- 
graph  blossomed  out  from  a  verbal 
partnership  into  a  corporation  capitalized 
at  $6,000,  still  owned,  however,  entirely 
by  Blackton,  Smith  and  Rock.  The  con- 
cern -  signalized  this  step  by  moving  its 
oflices,  always  a  popular  pastime  with 
motion  picture  concerns.  Established  in 
the  Morton  building  at  116  Nassau  Street, 
they  erected  a  stage  on  the  roof  and  en- 
tered more  seriously  into  fabricated  pro- 
duction. 

Picture  making  on  the  Morton  building 
roof  was  considerably  complicated  by  the 
clouds  of  exhaust  steam  from  the  engine 
room  in  the  basement.    In  a  shifting  wind

the  stage  was  often  entirely  obscured. 
Caught  in  a  gust  of  steam,  the  director 
would  cry,  "Hold."  Whereat  the  cast  on 
stage  would  freeze  motionless  in  the  pos- 
ture of  the  moment,  often  tragically 
ridiculous.  When  the  steam  passed  the 
camera  started  again.  The  studio  pictures 
of  this  period  were  largely  comedies  of 
a  violently  extravagant  type.

How  Marvin  tried  to  consolidate  Bio- 
graph  and  Edison  is  told,  but  a  bank 
failure  broke  the  idea.  How  Percy  Waters 
secured  a  big  contract  with  Tammany 
Hall  for  the  campaign  of  1901  is  interest- 
ingly told.  Waters  wanted  the  Republi- 
cans to  use  pictures  in  their  campaign, 
but  could  not  see  the  important  people 
necessarv. 

♦  ♦     ♦ 

With  the  campaign  over  Waters  had 
on  hand  the  biggest  single  stock  of  mo- 
tion picture  projection  machines  in  the 
world.      The    Kinetograph    Company   had 


them  as  a  profit  of  the  campaign  since 
the  contract  had  paid  for  them.  For  the 
first  time  the  standard  price  of  $125  for 
an  Edison  projector  was  cut. 

Waters  offered  his  second  hand  ma- 
chines for  about  $85  each.  They  sold 
rapidly  and  spreading  over  the  country 
became  an  important  agency  in  the  spread 
of  the  motion  picture.  A  new  attitude 
toward  the  motion  picture  was  develop- 
ing, too,  out  of  the  experiences  of  the 
vaudeville  theater  managers  in  1900  when 
the  actors,  under  the  leadership  of  George 
Fuller  Golden,  organized  the  White  Rats 
and  struck  against  the  newly  formed 
managerial  combine.  The  motion  picture 
saved  the  day  for  a  considerable  number 
of  theaters  would  not  have  been  able  to 
open  otherwise.  The  theatrical  world  was 
'beginning     to     see     possibilities     in     the 

pictures.

Picture  Making  in  South  Africa 

By  Leander  DeCordova 

The  first  time  I  went  to  hunt  for  a  location  in  Africa  where  I  was  making  pic- 
tures for  the  African  Films  Productions,  Ltd.,  I  was  greeted  by  a  sight  few  men  in 
our  line  of  endeavor  get  a  chance  to  see.  We  were  walking  along  a  narrow  ledge  of 
a  mountain,  and  down  its  sheer  sides  was  a  clear  drop  of  several  hundred  feet  into  the 
Umgeni  River,  when  we  were  stopped  dead  in  our  tracks  by  an  unearthly  throaty  yell. 
It  echoed  and  re-echoed  through  the  hills. 

Our  Zulu  guide  smiled  a  superior  smile  and  pointed  to  about  two  hundred  yards 
away,  and  there  we  saw  a  gorilla  the  size  of  any  ordinary  man  walking  away.  He  was 
tl'.e  head  of  the  scouts  of  the  gorilla  army.  All  of  the  monkey  family  have  scouts  who 
are  always  watching  and  standing  guard  over  their  colony,  and  "tip"  the  family  when 
the  road  is  clear  to  go  ahead  and  make  their  hauls,  for  you  must  know  that  the  monkey 
family  at  large  love  corn.  So  when  the  farmer  wages  war  on  them  as  he  always  does, 
he  must  match  his  wits  along  with  Mr.  Scout.  This  is  an  interesting  fact:  all  monkeys 
can  only  count  up  to  two,  so  when  the  farmer  goes  on  a  hunting  expedition,  he  is 
accompanied  by  three  others,  and  they  hide  behind  a  rock.  Then,  after  a  wait  of  about 
an  hour,  two  of  the  party  retire  and  Mr.  Scout  reports  that  they  are  all  gone.  Of 
course,  when  they  come  down  to  feed  on  the  sweet  "mealies,"  they  are  shot.  Those 
that  escape  then  tear  to  pieces  the  scout  for  giving  the  wrong  information.  We  saw 
a  lot  of  that  sort  of  thing  in  Africa,  but  let  me  tell  you  of  many  of  the  difficulties  we 
encountered. 

I  took  my  camera  man  and  assistant  from  America,  and  got  my  juvenile  and 
leading  woman  in  England,  and  the  rest  of  the  cast,  I  engaged  in  Africa.  I  was  fortunate 
in  securing  there  the  services  of  one  of  the  best  "heavy"  men  I  have  ever  known,  a 
Mr.  M.  A.  Wetherell,  an  actor  of  distinction  in  London,  who  was  in  Africa  at  the  time. 
The  rest  of  the  company  we  will  pass  gently  over;  I  drew  from  all  sources,  and  even 
V.  ent  to  the  old  men's  home  in  Jo-burg  (Johannesburg),  in  order  to  get  the  necessary 
tj'pes,  as  the  so  called  actors  could  not  put  on  beards  or  mustaches,  and  these  were 
necessary  as  they  had  to  play  Boers.  But  my  old  men  were  O.  K.  I  had  to  speak  a 
little  Dutch  as  that  is  all  they  understood.  When  they  got  on  the  set,  they  sat  stififly 
as  though  they  were  in  a  portrait  studio,  but  through  liberal  portions  of  whiskey  and 
smokes  of  all  kinds,  and  by  getting  chummy  with  them,  I  soon  explained  what  I  wanted, 
and  they  gave  me  the  atmosphere  that   I   required.

Out  on  the  "Veldt"— Note  the  Blacks 

Every  morning  we  were  up  at  4:30,  dressed  by  5.00  and  on  location.  In  most 
of  the  places,  we  went  into  the  kitchen  and  had  our  tea  around  the  stove.  Then  we 
started  our  day's  work  by  getting  to  location.  In  several  of  the  places  we  had  to  walk 
or  ride  horse-back,  as  there  were  no  autos  or  roads.  One  place  that  I  have  in  mind 
was  a  spot  called  Waterval  Boorn.  It  is  just  a  railroad  center  with  a  so-called  hotel, 
and  we  worked  nine  and  a  half  miles  away,  and  you  had  to  foot  it.  ^  And  such  walkingl— 
over  mountains  and  fording  rivers  over  waist  high.  This  spot  is  the  starting  of  the 
low  veldt  where  the  big  game  abounds.  So  we  packed  fire-arms  of  all  kinds.  In  our 
party  were  twelve  whites,  twenty  Zulu  hogs,  ten  horses  and  fourteen  head  of  bullocks. 
Everyone  in  the  party  was  on  the  alert  for  the  momba  snake,  the  most  deadly  in 
Africa,  which  hangs  from  the  trees  (they  take  the  same  color  as  the  tree),  and  strikes 
at  his  prey  while  hanging.  Thirty  seconds  from  the  time  the  momba  strikes,  is  the 
finish  of  this  sphere  of  consciousness  for  the  individual.  The  nearest  any  of  us  came 
to  it  was  when  a  dog  sitting  ten  feet  away  from  one  of  our  party  was  killed. 

We  worked  on  this  location  for  ten  days,  and  it  took  us  three  hours  every  morn- 
ing and  three  hours  every  evening  to  make  the  journey,  as  the  going  besides  being 
rough,  was  at  times  dangerous,  and  with  the  horses  and  bullocks  we  had  to  be  very 
careful;  and  the  three  ladies  in  our  party  required  a  great  deal  of  attention.  While  at 
this  place,  we  were  treated  in  the  most  gracious  manner  possible  by  everyone,  and  at 
a  S.  A.  O.  P.  (South  African  Police  Post)  located  here,  we  were  given  treatment  and 
attention  worthy  of  royalty.  Nothing  was  any  trouble,  and  Sergeant  Venter,  Commander 
of  the  Post,_  presented  me  with  an  assagai  which  I  treasure.  He  accompanied  me  on 
all  of  my  trips  to  hunt  locations  in  this  section,  and  many  times  I've  followed  him  on 
horseback  through  elephant  grass  so  high  that  no  man  three  feet  away  can  see  another, 
even  though  he  be  on  horse-back.  To  give  an  idea  of  the  country  we  were  going  through, 
the  horses  had  to  step  down  and  over  rocks  nearly  two  feet  high  in  most  places,  and 
the  ledge  we  were  on  was  but  a  foot  and  a  half  away  from  the  brink  of  the  mountain, 
so  that  a  mis-step  meant  someone  collecting  my  insurance.  On  all  of  these  occasions, 
we  drove  with  our  left  hands,  and  in  our  right,  we  carried  a  "45"  colt  ready  for  instant 
use.  Many  fine  specimens  of  spring  buck  were  shot  on  these  little  jaunts,  but  lions 
and  cheetaho  were  seen;  also  a  few  leopards.     At  a  farm  in  the  Cape  Province  of  some

25,000  acres,  at  a  place  called  Swellendam,  which  farm  was  owned  by  a  Mr.  Barry,  we' 
were  working  one  morning,  when  we  heard  one  of  the  cattle  yell,  and  there  was  a 
leopard  (they  call  them  tigers  in  Africa),  at  the  flank  of  the  poor  beast.  Mr.  Barry, 
who  was  with  us,  grabbed  his  rifle,  and  with  a  beautiful  shot  brought  him  down.  He 
measured  four  feet,  four  inches  from  tail  to  head. 

In  Zululand  in  Natal,  one  meets  with  a  courtesy  from  the  native,  foreign  to  our 
so  called  civilization.  From  the  moment  he  meets  you  his  right  hand  comes  to  a  Roman 
salute,  and  his  "Cosa-Baba"  (Big  White  Father)  to  "Sacabona"  (Good  Day,  Sir),  is  a 
greeting  of  welcome  of  friendliness.  Many  times  I've  been  entertained  by  the  Chief 
of  the  Village,  and  such  entertainment  consists  of  meeting  all  of  his  kin  in  a  large  hut, 
and  everyone  sits  around  on  the  floor  with  their  feet  converging  to  the  center  where  I 
would  be  showered  with  questions  about  America  and  the  black  race  of  our  country. 
They  spoke  in  Zulu,  and  I.  by  this  time,  was  able  to  keep  my  end  of  the  conversation 
going,  as  I  had  mastered  most  of  the  language,  at  least  enough  to  get  along  with. 
When  it  came  time  to  serve  refreshments,  one  of  the  Chief's  wives  (he  usually  has  six 
or  seven),  came  in  to  the  center  of  the  hut,  and  boiled  sweet  potatoes  were  placed  on  a 
grass  mat,  and  placed  at  your  feet  but  a  few  inches  away  from  the  toes  of  a  big  Zulu. 
Not  to  eat  would  be  the  signal  for  a  possible  fight,  as  in  Zulu  etiquette  that  is  considered 
very  bad  form.  So  you  eat  cold  boiled  sweet  potatoes  and  like  it,  and  if  the  smell  of 
the  natives  bothers  you,  don't  forget  that  the  odor  from  our  bodies  is  just  as  objectionable 
to  them  as  their's  is  to  us. 

On  one  occasion,  I  used  over  three  thousand  in  our  scenes,  and  one  of  my 
assistants  got  ill  from  their  odor,  but  as  there  was  a  world  of  work  to  do,  he  forgot  it 
and  went  to  it  with  a  will. 

In  the  big  fight  scene,  I  used  buglers  to  let  them  know  when  to  stop,  but  after 
they  started  to  fight,  nothing  would  stop  them,  and  they  got  out  of  hand,  and  a  real 
and  bloody  fight  lasted  for  over  an  hour.  Several  of  them  got  cut  up  pretty  badly,  and 
many  more  smashed  each  others  heads,  but  thank  God,  no  one  got  killed. 

All  scenes  requiring  the  use  of  large  -numbers  of  natives  must  be  made  near 
Johannesburg,  as  it  is  impossible  to  get  natives  in  quantities  anywhere  else.  That  state- 
ment, of  course,  does  not  apply  to  Central  Africa,  where  different  conditions  prevail.  At 
a  place  called  Potiegersrut,  which  is  in  the  lion  country,  I  worked  at  a  native  village  at 
Basotus.  I  was  treated  here  the  same  as  I  had  been  treated  at  other  places  with  a 
profound  respect,  and  great  attention  paid  to  my  comfort,  I  asked  for  a  drink  of  water, 
and  was  ushered  into  one  of  the  chief's  huts,  and  in  this  native  village  of  hundreds  of 
souls,  none  of  whom  spoke  a  word  of  English  but  the  chief,  I  came  upon  something 
which  startled  me  into  the  realization  of  the  understanding  that  time  alone  stands  between 
us  and  entire  civilization.  On  the  wall  of  this  hut,  nothing  was  to  be  seen  but  a  bit 
of  paper,  and  I  walked  across  to  see  what  was  on  it,  and  was  astounded  to  find  it  was 
a  bit  of  Rudyard   Kipling's.     Out  there,  in  Africa,  miles  away  from  any  white  people,

stood  a  philosophy  marking  time  to  the  day  when  it  would  be  understood  by  these  dark 
skinned  natives. 

We  partook  of  a  very  palatable  dinner  of  mealy  meal  (crushed  corn),  ground 
between  two  stones.  Here  the  native  women  would  not  pose  for  the  camera  until 
ordered  to  do  so  by  their  chief,  and  when  we  departed  every  man,  woman,  and  child 
in  the  village  saw  us  off.  No  more  moral  people  exist  than  these  Zulus.  The  women 
are  beautiful  specimens,  and  in  their  native  Kealls,  wear  the  "moochie"  which  is  but 
a  kind  of  skin  girdle  around  the  waist.  In  that  state,  they  live  lives  of  purity,  and 
seldom,  if  ever,  are  untrue  to  their  husbands.  But  once  get  them  in  European  dress, 
and  in  the  towns,  and  the  morals  are  all  shot  to  pieces. 

It's  a  great  country,  Africa,  and  a  great  people  who  are  hospitable  and  courteous; 
people  who  are  never  bothered  to  go  to  any  trouble  for  you.  The  only  place,  that  I 
encountered  opposition  to  Americans  and  our  methods,  was  by  a  few  employees  at 
the  Studio.  These  few  misguided  individuals  did  all  in  their  power  to  make  life 
unpleasant  for  us  and  to  roast  our  country  and  our  pictures  and  us,  but  one  swallow  does 
not  make  a  dinner  any  more  than  does  three  or  four  individuals  make  a  country.

HAND  COLORING 

of  MOTION  PICTURES 

Read  what  the  ''Film  Daily"  says  about 
my  hand  coloring  on  the  picture 

"THE  LIGHT  IN  THE  DARK" 

"Incidentally  the  introduction  of  this  feature  allows 
the  use  of  about  a  reel  of  colored  photography,  show- 
ing Tennyson's  famous  interpretation  of  The  Holy  Grail, 
and  this  is,  by  odds,  the  finest  color  work  ever  shown  in 
this  country.  It  undeniably  lifts  the  value  of  the  production 
materially.  If  the  picture  contained  nothing  else  of  value — 
and  in  fact  it  does — the  reel  mentioned  would  easily  make 
it  attractive  to  lots  of  people.  Too  much  praise  cannot  be 
given  this.  The  reel  is  a  charming  addition  to  the  picture, 
and  makes  it  unusually  worth  while. — "

A    SUGGESTION 

The  above  list,  while  far  from  complete,  is  the  b-st  obtainable  of  the  work  of  scenario  writers  in 
productions  released  during  the  past  year.  This  is  primarily  due  to  the  fact  that  very  often  producers 
fail  to  gfive  credit  to  the  scenario  writer.  Very  often  investigations  to  determine  the  name  of  the 
scenario   vvriter   are   blocked   for   some   reason   best    l.nown    to    the    producer. 

It  is  therefore  respectfully  urged  that  scenario  writers  forward  to  this  office  in  the  future  the 
"^es  of  such  productions  upon  which  they  have  worked.  Through  this  cooperation  a  more  complete  list 
will  be  available  for  future  issues.

EARLY   DAYS    IN   AUSTRALIA 

A  few  particulars  regarding  the  early  introduc- 
tion of  long  feature  pictures  in  Australia,  by  Mil- 
lard Johnson,  American  representative  of  Austra- 
lasian Films,  Ltd. 

In  1900  the  present  King  and  Queen  of  Eng- 
land came  to  Australia  and  about  10,000  feet  of 
negative  was  taken  for  the  Australian  Government 
by  Mr,  J.  Perry,  depicting  the  ceremonies,  pro- 
cessions, etc.,  when  Australia  became  a  nation. 

I  bought  about  4,000  feet  and  made  a  feature 
of  over  3,500  feet  long  and  toured  Victoria  and 
Tasmania  with  this,  supplemented  by  other  short 
subjects,  but  lost  money.  This  is  the  first  record 
of  a  long  feature. 

In  1903  Charles  Urban  made  a  four  reel  feature 
called  "Living  London"  without  any  titles.  Mr. 
W.  A.  Gibson  and  myself,  in  conjunction  with 
Taits,  exploited  this  through  Australia  and  India 
and  did  enormous  business,  so  much  so  that  in 
1904  Taits  asked  us  to  make  another  and  we  pro- 
duced in  1905  "The  Kelly  Gang,"  a  five  reel 
feature  life  story,  the  first  ever  made,  and  even 
now  no  picture  has  reached  the  great  financial 
success  of  this  in  Australia. 

Every  six  months  we  made  another  of  these 
including  "Robbery  Under  Arms,"  "Mystery  of 
the  Hansom  Cab,"  "Called  Back,"  "The  Bells" 
and  others. 

Each  of  these  were  over  6  reels  long  and  a  whole 
night's  entertainment.  These  cost  about  $2,500  to 
make  and  we  shot  7,000  feet  of  negative  and 
showed  6,500  feet  of  positive. 

I  am  therefore  justly  entitled  to  be  ranked 
amongst  the  very  earliest  in  the  world  who  in- 
troduced and  saw  the  great  possibility  of  the  long 
6  reel  feature. 

For  "The  Bells"  Mr.  Gibson  and  myself  en- 
gaged Arthur  Steyn,  Melbourne's  leading  actor, 
and  hired  all  the  stage  scenery  from  Williamsons 
for  our  production. 

Mr.  Spencer  produced  about  1908  "Sweet  Nell 
of  Old  Drury,"  paying  Miss  Nellie  Stewart  about 
$5,000  to  act  her  leading  stage  role,  which  was 
considered  an  enormous  salary  in  those  days. 

When  I  arrived  in  America  in  1913,  long  pic- 
tures were  absolutely  unknown,  no  orchestras  of 
24  and  30,  but  these  were  very  common  in  Aus- 
tralian pictureshows,  and  pictures  of  30  to  35 
feet  diameter  were  the  usual  size  there. 

I  personally  contracted  with  Adolph  Zukor  for 
his  first  year  productions  at  their  earliest  com- 
mencement, but  my  firm  had  previously  bought  in 
London  Bernhardt's  "Queen  Elizabeth"  before  it 
was  shown  in  America. 

The  Nordisk  Biograph  with  Asta  Neilson  made 
the  best  5  reel  features  in  the  earliest  times  prior 
to  1912. 


COLOR   PHOTOGRAPHY   IN    1922 

By  Carroll  H.  Dunning,  Vice-President, 
Prizma,  Inc. 
Progress  during  1922  in  the  field  of  color  motion 
photography  has  been  marked  by  the  announce- 
ment by  several  new  companies  of  the  acquisition 
of  patents  and  their  intentions  to  make  color 
films,  by  the  demise  of  at  least  one  company 
whose  initial  wark  in  1921  gave  some  promise; 
and  by  the  gradual  acceptance  by  the  trade  of  the 
value  of  color  in  their  productions  and  willingness 
to  cooperate  with  color  companies  to  get  those 
results  that  can  be  secured  in  no  other  way  than 
by   means   of   color   photography. 

Prizma,  Inc.,  pioneer  color  company  working 
under  the  patents  and  processes  of  William  Van 
Doren  Kelley,  has  pursued  the  even  tenor  of  its 
way,  making  improvements  in  its  methods,  building 
new  equipment  in  its  laboratory  and  getting  better 
results  in  its  product.  During  the  year  Prizma 
made  and  released  a  series  of  26  short  subjects 
comprising  the  only  regular  short  subject  service 
in  the  world  using  color  photography  exclusively. 
It  made  for  Music  Films,  Inc.  the  series  of 
exquisite  little  dances  in  synchronization  with  the 
music,  that  proved  to  be  such  a  distinct  novelty 
and  at  once  acceptable  to  the  leading  first-run 
theaters  in  the  country.  It  made  the  release 
prints  for  J.  Stuart  Blackton's  first  Prizma  color 
drama  "The  Glorious  Adventure,"  handling  the 
largest  color  order  ever  placed,  in  its  Jersey  City 
laboratory  with  double  shifts  working  five  nights 
a  week  for  the  entire  summer.  It  made  color 
titles,  prologues,  inserts  or  embellishments  for 
practically  every  prominent  producer  in  the  in- 
dustry. Such  work  as  that  appearing  in  Mae 
Murray's  "Broadway  Rose"  being  typical  of  the 
improved   methods    and    results    secured. 

It  opened  a  new  office  in  Hollywood  in  charge 
of  Captain  George  Stone  to  take  care  of  producers 
on  the  Coast  needing  color  in  their  productions, 
and  it  saw  its  product  meet  with  profitable  accept- 
ance by  exhibitors  and  public  in  England,  France, 
Belgium,  Holland,  Scandinavia  and  Czecho- 
slovakia. 

The  principal  event  of  all  in  1922,  however,  m 
the  field  of  color  motion  photography  from  a 
historical  standpoint  was  undoubtedly  the  premiere 
showing  of  "The  Glorious  Adventure''  at  the 
Capitol,  New  York,  in  April.  Much  depended 
upon  the  initial  reception  by  the  public  of  this  J. 
Stuart  Blackton  production  because  it  was  the 
first  full  length  color  in  the  film  feature  ever  to 
be  shown. 

The  favorable  reaction  of  the  public  at  that  time 
and  since  as  reflected  in  the  box-office  both  in  this 
country  and  in  Europe  furnishes  the  encouraging 
answer  that  color  motion  photography  has  a  place 
in   the   industry.

are  built  in  the  belief  that  there  is  no  sub- 
stitute for  quality. 

Somewhat  more  than  two  years  ago  this 
organization  began  with  the  making  of  a 
two  reel  comedy  series. 

Slowly,  steadily,  its  production  grew,  the 
staff  responsible  for  the  various  pictures 
being  increased  by  careful  selection  and 
thorough  training. 

"Entertainment  always  —  but  quality 
first"  has  been  the  principle  upon  which  this 
growth  progressed. 

In  features,  in  comedies,  in  cartoons,  in 
scenic  pictures,  that  slogan  reveals  itself. 

Independently  made  pictures  should  be 
quality  pictures.  We  believe  no  producing 
organization  puts  more  of  its  sense  of  re- 
sponsibility to  exhibitor  and  public  upon 
the  screen.

Statistics  of  the  Motion  Picture  Industry 

(Published  by  Courtesy  of  The  Motion  Picture  News) 

In  November  The  Motion  Picture  News  published  the  result  of  the  investigation 
which  was  made  by  the  News,  Babson's  Statistical  Organization  and  Columbia  Uni- 
versity, and  furnished  the  following  statistics  relative  to  the  industry.  These  figures 
are  based  on  the  result  of  a  questionnaire  sent  to  10,000  exhibitors  in  the  United  States. 


Taking  up  first  the  matter  of  seating  capac- 
ity, tabulation  of  the  questionnaires  showed  the 
following  percentages  of  houses  of  various  sizes: 

0    to    250    seats 26.88% 

251   to   500   seats 36.91% 

501    to    1,000    seats 27.44% 

1,001   to   1,250   seats 3.20% 

1,251    to    1,500    seats 2.37% 

1,501    to    2,000    seats 2.23% 

More    than    2,000    seats 0.97% 

Applying  these  figures  to  a  total  of  14,000 
theatres,  (which  figure  is  being  used  pending 
final   data),   we    have   the   following: 

0    to    250    seats 3,763 

251    to   500   seats 5,167 

501    to    1,000    seats 3,842 

1,001    to    1,250    seats 448 

1,251    to    1,500    seats 332 

1,501    to    2,000    seats 312 

More     than     2,000     seats 136 

The  next  set  of  figures  relates  to  the  number 
of  days  each  week  which  the  theatre  is  open, 
and   gives   the   following   results: 

Open    1    day 6.87% 

Open    2    days 13.01% 

Open    3    days 10.38% 

Open    4    days 5.42  % 

Open    5    days 2.33  % 

Open    6    days 30.13% 

Open    7    days 31.87% 

Applying  these  figures  to  the  total  number  of 
theatres,  as  in  the  former  instance,  develops 
the    following: 

Open    1    day 962 

Open    2    days 1,821 

Open    3    days 1,453 

Open    4    days 758 

Open    5    days 326 

Open    6    days 4,218 

Open    7    days 4,462 

The  total  number  of  people  employed,  includ- 
ing manager,  musicians,  and  others,  resulted 
in    the    following    percentages: 

1  person    1.20% 

2  persons    3.15% 

3  persons    9.28% 

4  persons     16.62% 

5  persons    14.97% 

6  persons     13.92% 

7  persons    8.09% 

8  persons    5.24% 

9  persons     4.94% 

10  persons    4.79% 

11  persons    2.10% 

12  persons    1.95% 

13  persons     1.04% 

14  persons    1.95% 

15  persons     1.94% 

More   than    15    persons    8.83% 

Reducing  this  to  terms  of  theaters  gives  the 
following  number  with  the  various  numbers 
of    employes: 

1  person    168 

2  persons    441 

3  persons    1,299 

4  persons    2,327 

5  persons    2,096 

6  persons    1,949 

7  persons    1,133 

8  persons    734 

9  persons    692 

10  persons    671 

11  persons    294 

12  persons    273 

13  persons    145 

14  persons    271 

15  persons     271 

More    than    15    persons     1,236 


The  next  question  asked  was:  "Have  you 
exhibitor  competition?"  The  replies  were  as 
follows: 

Exhibitor    competition     47.68% 

No   exhibitor  competition    52.32% 

In    terms    of    theaters,    this    would   be: 

Exhibitor    competition     6,675 

No    exhibitor    competition     7,325 

The  following  question  related  to  the  type  of 
theater;  whether  city,  first  run,  city,  second 
run,  neighborhood  or  small  town.  For  some 
reason,  however,  less  than  half  of  those  sending 
in  questionnaires  checked  this  question  and 
since  the  conclusions  based  on  this  might  be 
misleading,  this  is  being  deferred  until  it  can 
be  checked  further. 

With  regard  to  admission  prices,  very  com- 
plete returns  were  obtained.  First,  as  regards 
matinee  prices,  the  following  averages  were 
arrived    at: 

10   to  24  cents 83.79%, 

25   to  49  cents 15.24% 

60   to  99  cents 0.73%o 

$1.00    and    more    0.24% 

This,   in   terms  of  theaters,  is: 

10  to  24  cents 11,731 

25   to  49  cents 2,134 

50   to   99   cents 102 

$1.00    and    more 88 

On  evening  prices,  the  following  average  fig- 
ures   were   tabulated: 

10    to    24    cents 56.44% 

25    to    49    cents 40.30%, 

50    to    99    cents 3.07% 

$1.00     and     more 0.19% 

Or,    in    terms    of    theaters: 

10    to    24    cents 7,901 

25    to    49    cents 5,642 

50    to    99    cents 430 

$1.00     and     more 27 

It  will  be  noticed  that  the  number  rising 
above  the  25-cent  level  is  greatly  increased  in 
the  evening,  with  a  considerable  increase  also 
shown  in  the  50  to  99  cent  range.  The  num- 
ber over  one  dollar  appear  as  slightly  less  in 
the  evening  than  in  the  afternoon,  due  to  the 
fact  that  several  of  these  theaters,  operating 
on  one  scale  only  checked  these  prices  only 
against  this  matinee.  This,  however,  does  not 
materially    affect    the    major    items. 

One  of  the  most  significant  items  in  the 
entire  survey,  that  relating  to  the  number  of 
theaters  which  have  lowered  their  admission 
prices    recently,    follows.      The    results    are: 

Have   lowered   prices    recently 32.55% 

Have    not    lowered   prices    recently 67.45% 

Or,   in   numbers   of  theaters: 

Have    lowered   prices    recently 4,557 

Have   not    lowered    prices    recently 9,443 

Another  much  debated  question,  that  of  rais- 
ing prices  on  special  attractions,  was  also  in- 
cluded.     This    showed    the    following: 

Raise    on    specials 55.80% 

Do    not    raise 44.20% 

Or,   again,    reduced   to  number  of   theaters: 

Raise    on    specials 7,812 

Do    not    raise 6,188 

The  next  group  of  figures,  relating  to  the 
number  of  paid  admissions  daily,  as  reported 
by  these  theaters,  is  particularly  interesting 
when  compared  with  the  seating  capacity  of 
these  same  theaters.  The  figures  are  as  fol- 
lows: 

0   to    100   patrons    daily     15.63% 

101    to   200    patrons     33.89% 

201    to   300    patrons     16.23% 

301    to   400    patrons     7.82% 

401    to   500    patrons     8.62%

More    than    2,000    patrons     2.20% 

This,    in    terms    of    theaters,    gives: 

0   to   100    patrons    daily    2.188 

101    to    200    patrons     2,742 

201    to   300    patrons     2,272 

301    to   400    patrons     1,095 

401    to    500    patrons     1,207 

501    to   600    patrons     646 

601    to   750    patrons     252

1,001    to    1,500    patrons     392 

1,501    to   2,000    patrons     337 

More   than   2,000   patrons    308 

The  proportions  of  tlieaters  making  from  one 
to  seven  changes  of  program  each  week  proved 
to  be  as  follows : 

1  change      per   week 9.90% 

2  changes    per   week 21.54% 

3  changes   per   week 24.60% 

4  changes   per   week 17.76% 

5  changes    per   week 7.28% 

6  changes   per   week 15.43% 

t   changes    per   week 3.49% 

It  will  be  seen  that  the  largest  nvimber  change 
three  times  weekly,  with  the  two  change  houses 
only  a  bit  behind.  Four  changes  and  six 
changes  follow,  with  one,  five  and  seven  changes 
at   the   end   of  the   list. 

The  following  question  bears  an  intimate  re- 
lation to  that  just  analyzed — the  number  of 
shows  given  daily.  This  developed  some  rather 
surprising  facts,  and  showed  that  comparatively 
few  houses,  taking  the  country  as  a  whole, 
run  continuously,  a  large  number  running  but 
two    and    three    shows. 

The  tabulated   figures   are  as   follows: 

1  show      daily    24.74% 

2  shows    daily    33.58% 

3  shows    daily     11.93% 

4  shows    daily    7.81% 

5  shows    daily     10.16% 

6  shows    daily    6.04% 

7  shows    daily    3.39% 

8  shows    daily    1.03  % 

9  shows    daily    0.15% 

10  shows    daily     0.29% 

11  shows    daily     0.29% 

'  12    shows    daily    0.59% 

Arranging  these  in  order  of  size,  we  find  that 
more  than  one-third  of  all  theaters  run  only 
two  shows  daily,  with  a  fourth  running  one. 
Following,  in  order  are:  Three,  five;  four,  six: 
seven,   eight;    twelve,    ten;   eleven,   nine. 

The  number  of  reels  to  a  program  constituted 
the  next  question  to  be  filled  in,  and  unusually 
complete  returns  were  obtained  on  this,  hardly 
a    theater    failing    to     answer    the    question. 

As  might  be  expected,  the  majority  of  thea- 
ters are  grouped  in  the  zone  between  six  and 
ten  reels  to  the  program.  The  detailed  figures 
are: 

1-reel    program     0.13% 

2-reeI    program     0.65% 

3-reel    program     0.13% 

4-reel    program     0.39% 

5-reel    program     4.30% 

6-reel    program     10.03% 

7-reel    program     25.39% 

8-reel    program     26.43% 

9-reel    program     14.33% 

10-reel    program     12.63% 

11-reel    program     1.82% 

12-reel    program     2.86% 

13-reel    program     0.39% 

14-reel    program     0.39% 

15-reel    program     0.13% 

As  will  be  seen,  the  eight-reel  program  is  in 
the  lead,  with  the  seven-reel  program  but  a 
step  behind.  There  is  then  a  considerable  gap 
between  these  and  the  next  figure,  th  nine- 
reel  program,  closely  followed  by  the  ten  and 
six.  The  remainder,  in  order,  rank:  Five, 
twelve,  eleven,  two,  four,  thirteen,  fourteen, 
one    and    fifteen. 


Ranged  in  order  of  their  relative  strength, 
the  percentage  of  theaters  using  various  aux- 
iliary   attractions    is    as    follows: 

Two-reel   comedy    .  .' 72.78% 

News    weekly    58.72% 

One-reel   comedy    46.22  % 

Serial      34.76%, 

Animated    cartoon    22.72 % 

Scenic    or    travel 22.00% 

Screen    magazine    21.09% 

Two-reel     drama     13.54% 

Vaudeville      5.99% 

Prologue     2.47% 

Two-reel  comedies  lead  the  field  strongly, 
with  the  news  weekly  also  making  an  excellent 
showing.  The  one-reel  comedy  falls  consider- 
ably   below    the    two-reel. 

The  item  concerning  vaudeville,  it  must  be 
remembered,  does  not  indicate  that  only  5.99% 
of  all  the  theaters  in  the  country  run  vaude- 
ville, since  this  survey  covers  only  those  thea- 
ters which  are  primarily  picture  houses,  with 
vaudeville    as    a    side    line. 

The  sort  of  music  used  in  the  theater  was 
the    subject    of    the    next    two    questions. 

The  first  of  these  related  to  whether  the 
theater  used  a  piano,  an  organ  or  an  orchestra. 
Many  theaters,  of  course,  have  more  than  one 
of  these.  The  question  regarding  this  was  an- 
swered by  85.28%  of  the  theaters  returning 
questionnaires,  the  balance  leaving  the  ques- 
tion blank,  leading  to  the  assumption  that  a 
considerable  portion,  at  least,  of  the  other 
14.72%    run    without    music. 

Among  the  theaters  listing  music,  the  fol- 
lowing   percentage    prevailed: 

Organ     4  5.95% 

Orchestra     29.47% 

Piano      24.58% 

Thus  it  will  be  seen  that  nearly  half  of  the 
theaters  reporting  have  organs  of  one  sort  or 
another,  slightly  more  than  one-fourth  have 
orchestras,  and  nearly  one-fourth  rely  upon  a 
piano. 

The  second  question  regarding  music  related 
to  the  number  of  pieces  in  the  orchestra, 
where  the  theater  had  one.  Practically  every 
exhibitor  stating  that  he  had  an  orchestra  an- 
swered this  question,  so  the  replies  correlate 
closely   with  the   preceding  table. 

Tabulated  in  groups,  the  theaters  having 
orchestras  of  various   sizes  line  up  as   follows: 

2  pieces      11.05% 

3  pieces      22.09% 

4  pieces      13.26% 

5  pieces      18.24%, 

5    to    10     pieces     28.73% 

11    to   15     pieces     3.32% 

16    to   25    pieces     2.21% 

25   to   50     pieces     1.10% 

The  five  to  ten-piece  orchestra,  it  will  be 
seen,  is  the  ruling  favorite,  with  the  three- 
piece  orchestra  following.  The  others,  in  order 
of  greatest  frequency,  rank:  Five,  four,  two, 
eleven  to  fifteen,  sixteen  to  twenty-five,  twenty- 
five    to    fifty. 

This  completes  the  first  two  sections  of  the 
questionnaire,  and  makes  it  possible  to  go  a 
step  further  and  present  a  statistical  picture 
of  the    "average   American    picture   theater." 

The  news  made  the  following  interesting 
calculation  of  the  "average"  American  picture 
house    based    upon    the   foregoing    figures: 

Number   of    seats     507 

Number   of   days    open    weekly 5 

Number   of    people    employed     7 

Matinee   price     scale     12-28    cents 

Evening   price    scale     17-36    cents 

Average    daily    patronage 364 

Program     changes    every    two    weeks 7 

Number   of    shows    per    day 3 

Number    of    reels    to    program 8 

One  of  the  most  important  and  significant 
parts  of  the  questionnaire,  that  headed  "Your 
Box-Office    Results,"    follows: 

The  first  question  to  be  asked  under  this 
heading  was:  "Can  you  count  on  a  good  aver- 
age business,  regardless  of  the  feature  you  are 
playing?"

No  little  interest  attached  to  this,  since  it 
has  long  been  a  disputed  point  as  to  whether 
a  theater,  or  any  great  number  of  theaters, 
could  build  up  a  steady,  week  in  and  week 
out  clientele,  regardless  of  special  attractions. 
This  question  was  answered  by  practically  every 
theater  manager  filling  in  the  questionnaire, 
and  the  tabulated  result  shows  the  following 
percentages: 

Good   business  regardless    23.98% 

Not    good   unless   feature   is    good 76.02% 

Three  out  of  four  theaters,  it  will  be  seen, 
find  that  business  falls  oflf  noticeably  when 
the  attraction  is  mediocre  or  poor,  thus  indi- 
cating strongly  that  the  prosperity  of  the  in- 
dustry  depends,   first  of  all,  upon   good  pictures. 

Next,  in  order,  was  a  closely  related  ques- 
tion: "Do  you  find  that  an  attraction  that 
draws  extra  large  business  hurts  attendance 
on    pictures    immediately     following?" 

This  has  been  the  subject  of  more  conten- 
tion than  has  the  first  question,  since  it  has  a 
highly  important  bearing  upon  the  ever  present 
"super  special"  attraction,  and  its  real  desir- 
ability. 

Tlie  tabulated  answers,  representing  the  judg- 
ment and  experience  of  the  theater  managers 
in     sending    in    questionnaires,    are     as    follows: 

Hurts    business     following 68.77% 

Does    not    hurt   business    following 31.23% 

Again,  it  will  be  seen  a  considerable  ma- 
jority of  exhibitors  agree  that  an  unusual  at- 
traction has  an  effect  upon  business  imme- 
diately    following. 

In  considering  these  figures,  of  course,  it 
rnust  be  brone  in  mind  that  a  special  attrac- 
tion is  usually  exploited  heavily,  and  imme- 
diately following  it,  advertising  and  exploita- 
tion usually  fall  temporarily  below  the  normal 
lever,  and  this  may  account  for  some  of  the 
depression. 

Generally  speaking,  however,  the  axiom  niay 
be  safely  laid  down  that,  in  the  majority  of 
theaters,  good  pictures  are  vitally  necessary 
to  insure  good  business,  but  that  business 
must  be  expected  to  fall  a  bit  below  normal 
following  an  attraction  that  draws  unusually 
large     receipts. 

The  third  question  under  this  head  has  also 
been  the  bone  of  frequent  contention  among 
those  connected  with  motion  pictures.  This 
question  was:  "Taking  the  total  box-office 
attraction  as  100%,  how  would  you  divide  it 
among  the  following?  (Give  your  opinion)." 
Then  followed  space  to  fill  in  the  estimated 
percentages  on  the  feature,  short  subjects,  music 
and     vaudeville. 

The    results    of    this    are    as    follows: 

Feature      68% 

Short    subjects 17% 

Music     15% 

As  shown,  only  5.99%  of  the  theaters  an- 
swering played  vaudeville,  so  this  was  tabulated 
separately.  Among  these  theaters,  the  fore- 
going figures  were  reduced  proportionately,  with 
vaudeville  given  the  following  rating: 
Vaudeville     33% 

These  percentages  represent,  in  each  case, 
an  average  of  the  percentages  assigned  by  all 
of  the  managers.  While  such  figures,  of  course, 
can  only  represent  managerial  judgment,  and 
can  neVer,  perhaps,  be  a  matter  of  definite 
knowledge,  this  represents,  as  far  as  is  known, 
the  first  broad  consensus  of  opinion  ever  ob- 
tained on  this  subject.  It  is  a  matter  of  opinion 
at  best,  and  that  of  the  theater  manager 
is   most    likely  to   be   accurate. 

Great  economic  i:nportance  attaches  to  the 
following  question:  "How  does  present  busi- 
ness compare  with:  1914?  1918?  1919?  1920? 
1921?"  Then  followed  space  in  which  to  check 
"Better,"    "Same"    or    "Worse." 

The    tabulated    percentages    are: 

Better    than    1914 25.54% 

Same    as    1914 19.68% 

Worse    than    1914 54.78% 

Better    than     1918 17.28% 

Same    as    1918 15.71% 


Worse    than    1918 67.01% 

Better    than    1919 14.25% 

Same   as    1919 10.7 4  of„ 

Worse    than    1919 75.01% 

Better   than    1920    12.16% 

Same    as    1920 10.98% 

Worse    than    1920 76.86  cj^ 

Better    than    1921 11.21% 

Same    as    1921 17.26c);, 

Worse    than    1921 71.53% 

Practically  three-fourths  of  the  theaters,  it 
will  be  noted,  reported  business  as  worse  than 
either  1919,  1920  or  1921,  while  only  about 
one-eighth  report  it  better.  These  questions, 
however,  were  filled  out  a  few  months  ago, 
and  it  is  to  be  assumed  that  some  improvement 
has    come    about    since    that    time. 

A  fairly  optimistic  note  was  sounded  in  the 
replies  to  the  following  question:  "What  do  you 
expect  for  the  remainder  of  1922?"  on  which 
the     following     replies     were     received: 

Better   expected    34.99% 

Same   expected    50.30% 

Worse   expected    14.71% 

The  close  relation  between  general  prosperity 
and  the  prosperity  of  the  motion  picture  in- 
dustry was  established  in  the  answers  to  the 
next  question:  "Do  you  get  a  much  larger 
attendance  in  years  when  there  is  full  employ- 
ment and  business  is  good  generally?"  The 
sentiment  on  this  is  overwhelming,  as  seen  in 
the    following: 

Yes     97.29% 

No     2.71% 

"What  is  you  best  season?"  followed.  This 
is  not  a  matter  regarding  which  there  has  been 
any  great  uncertainty,  but  the  answers  re- 
vealed a  somewhat  surprising  diversity  in  this 
regard.  In  a  considerable  number  of  cases, 
managers  checked  more  than  one  season,  in 
which  case  the  vote  was  split.  The  totals  are 
as    follows: 

Spring    best     20.16% 

Summer    best    7.20% 

Fall    best     48.29% 

Winter    best    24.34% 

Following  this,  and  closely  allied  to  it,  was  the 
question:  "What  is  your  poorest  season?"  The 
results    on    this    are: 

Spring  poorest 16.05% 

Summer    poorest     61.09% 

Fall   poorest    3.35% 

Winter     poorest      19.51  % 

Thus  it  will  be  seen  that  fall  is  the  best 
season  with  the  greatest  number  of  theaters, 
with  winter,  spring  and  summer  following,  in 
order,  and  that  summer  is  the  poor  in  a  large 
majority  of  cases,  with  winter,  spring  and  fall 
following. 

Also  economic  in  nature  was  the  next  ques- 
tion: "How  do  most  of  your  patrons  get  their 
money?"  with  spaces  to  fill  in  under  agricul- 
ture, mining,  livestock,  manufacturing  indus- 
tries   and    miscellaneous. 

The  replies  to  this  question  reveal  the  fol- 
lowing percentages  among  the  theaters  an- 
swering: 

Agriculture      10.60% 

Mining      10.33% 

Livestock     12.63% 

Manufacturing    industries     34.10% 

Miscellaneous      32.34% 

Manufacturing  industries,  it  will  be  seen,  are 
well  in  the  lead,  with  agriculture,  mining  and 
livestock    rather    evenly    divided. 

The  following  question  is  of  interest  to  almost 
everyone  in  the  industry,  presenting,  as  it 
does,  the  types  of  features  which  make  the 
best  box-ofSce  attractions.  These,  ranged  in 
order  of  highest  to  lowest,   are: 

Westerns      18.16% 

Feature    comedies     18.04% 

Famous    books    and    plays    15.41% 

Society     15.06% 

Northwoods     14.62% 

Light     farce     7.35% 

Melodrama     7.27% 

Heavy     drama     8.07% 

Costume     1.02  %

Exhibitors  who  do  not  desire  to  pay  music  tax 
should  remember  the  following : 

1st.  Absolute  instructions  should  be  given  to 
those  in  charge  of  the  theater  music  as  to  just 
whose  music  should  be  made  use  of  and  that  if 
there  is  any  doubt  the  music  should  not  be  used 
until   the   facts   are   known. 

2nd.  Cue  sheets  and  scores  offered  for  sale  or 
distributed  should  not  be  used  by  those  who  do 
not  wish  to  pay  the  tax  unless  the  statement  is 
made  and  guaranteed  that  the  music  recommended 
is  not  subject  to  tax.  Where  scores  are  sold  or 
rented  a  guarantee  should  go  with  each  copy  that 
all  liability  is  assumed  by  the  publisher  should 
trouble  arise. 

3rd.  Every  theater  _man  not  wishing  to  pay  the 
tax  should  see  that  his  library  of  music  contains 
only  selections  which  are  issued  by  those  compa- 
nies whose  music  is  tax  free  and  are  nou-members 
of  the  society. 

4th.  When  those  in  charge  of  the  music  supply 
the  music  for  the  theater  the  theater  owner  should 


instruct  and  demand  that  non-taxable  music  only 
should  be  played,  and  when  cues  are  supplied  see 
to  it  that  the  musicians  substitute  non-taxable 
music  wherever  taxable  music  is  specified.  The 
theater  owner  is  liable  if  this  is  not  done. 

Trouble  and  lawsuits  may  result  from  the  use 
of  music  inadvertently  used  which  is  taxable,  three- 
fore  too  much  care  cannot  be  used.  Spotters  may 
be  in  the  audience  or  other  methods  used  for  lo- 
cating  houses   using   taxable   music. 

Some  houses  believe  that  the  tax  is  so  small 
that  it  is  better  to  pay  it  than  Pght  and  go  to  the 
trouble  of  inspecting  all  music  This  is  an  open 
question  to  be  settled  by  each  theater  owner  indi- 
vidually or  by  the  united  action  of  the  theater 
owners'  organization.  If  the  tax  is  to  be  fought 
it  must  be  done  by  united  action  of  theater  in- 
terests. 

A  warning  should  be  given  to  every  maker  of 
cue-sheets  and  every  maker  of  scores  that  he  owes 
it  to  the  theater  to  label  every  cue — stating  wheth- 
er or  not  it  contains  taxable  music  and  if  so  each 
of   the  selections  should  be  so  labeled. 


10  Year  Comparison  of  Operating  Costs 

Frank  J.  Rembusch,  who  operates  a  chain  of  theaters  in  Indiana,  prepared  an  inter- 
esting chart  in  March,  showing  how  the  operative  costs  of  a  theater  have  caried  since 
1912.  Rembusch  took  as  his  model  a  theater  representing  an  investment  of  $75,000  in 
a  town  of  10,000  population.  He  compared  a  week's  business  during  February,  1912, 
and  February,  1922,  and  used  the  same  house,  operating  under  fixed  conditions,  such  as 
seating  capacity,  population  and  management,  and  on  that  basis  ascertained  the  ap- 
pended information:

In   discussing  the  chart,   Rembusch  says  : 

"The  report  tells  a  story  more  eloquently  than 
words,  because  figures  don't  prevaricate.  This, 
I  find,  reflects  the  general  conditions  everywhere, 
only  some  are  worse. 

"Sometimes  I  have  made  myself  unpopular  with 
exhibitors  by  telling  the  truth,  because  they  would 
rather  hear  a  'dream  tale.'  Far  be  it  from  me  to 
give  advice,  but  one  thing  is  certain — No  one  can 
take  more   water   out   of  a  pail   than   it   contains. 

'T  have  been  in  the  business  for  17  years,  and 
the  times  are  the  toughest  in  my  experience.''

THE   IMPORTANT  TWELVE 

In  December,  the  Motion  Picture  News  secured 
from  over  one  hundred  producers,  distributors, 
exhibitors  and  other  of  importance  in  the  industry, 
their  views  as  to  the  twelve  men  who  had  accom- 
plished the  most  for  the  motion  picture  industry 
from   an   artistic,   economic   viewpoint. 

The  result  up  to  December  16,  showed  the  fol- 
lowing :

1923  Best  Year  for  Independents 
John  A.  Murphy,  President  Abbey  Pictures,  Inc., 
says:  "From  any  angle  you  take  it  the  new  year 
will  be  better  than  the  one  just  gone.  New  pro- 
ducers of  quality  pictures  will  make  money  and 
become  established  in  the  industry.  It  will  be  an 
independent  year  and  a  banner  one  at  that.  The 
trend  of  things  all  favor  the  independent  market. 
Better  times  are  predicted,  prosperity  will  be  a 
reality,  theaters  will  do  better  than  ever  they  did, 
and  many  new  stars  will  be  created  by  the  inde- 
pendent producers  and  distributors.  We  have  de- 
cided to  produce  six  super  features  during  the  new 
year  which  means  a  big  outlay  of  real  money, 
but  we  are  not  worried  over  the  outcome  in  the 
least,  and  undoubtedly  no  one  else  is,  and  if  they 
are  they  should  wake  up."

"Scandinavia    Overestimated" — Bouveng 

Nils  C.  Bouveng,  of  Swedish  Biograiih,  in  a 
statement  covering  film  conditions  in  Scandinavia 
says,   in  part: 

"The  him  buymg  capacity  of  Scandinavia  has 
been  rather  overestimated.  A  glance  at  the  map 
shows  Scandinavia  as  a  rather  large  area  com- 
prising the  three  well  known  kingdoms  of  Sweden, 
Norway  and  Denmark,  but  it  is  not  always  re- 
membered that  a  large  portion  of  this  area  is 
situated  beyond  the  Polar  Circle  and  is  very 
sparsely  populated. 

'To  get  a  correct  impression  of  Scandinavia's 
position  in  the  film  market  it  is  absolutely  necessary 
to  remember  that  the  number  of  motion  picture 
houses  never  reached  more  than  700,  a  number 
which  is  decreasing  every  day  on  account  of  pre- 
vailing low  conjunctures.  Also  a  great  many  of 
these  theaters  are  to  be  found  in  small  villages 
and  communities  with  a  small  number  of  in- 
liabitants;  furthermore,  half  of  the  theaters  are 
not  able  to  play  more  than  two  or  three  times  a 
week. 

"Economical  conditions,  coupled  with  the  pres- 
sure of  ta.xation,  heavier  than  ever  before,  Itave 
been  very  unfavorable  for  the  film  business.  A 
very  good  illustration  of  this  fact  is  afforded  by 
the  motion  picture  theaters  of  Stockholm  show  a 
decrease  of  27',(  during  1921  as  against  the  pre- 
ceding year."'

THE   HAYS   ORGANIZATION 

A    RESUME     OF     THE     DEVELOPMENT     OF 

THE  M.  P.  PROD.  AND   DIS.  OF 

AMERICA,    INC. 

In  December,  1921,  a  committee  of  Producers 
and  Distributors  approached  Postmaster  Gen- 
eral Will  H  Hays,  asking  that  he  consider  a 
proposal  to  head  an  association  of  a  number 
of  the  leading  companies  in  the  industry.  Fol- 
lowing conferences  at  the  White  House,  Presi- 
dent Harding  on  January  14,  issued  this  state- 
ment: 

"The    Postmaster    General    and    I    have 
been     discussing     at     considerable     length 
the    proposal    which     has     been     made     to 
him    to    become    the    head    of    a    National 
Association    of   Motion    Picture    Producers 
and     Distributors.       If     the     arrangement 
proves     to     be,     when     the     details     are 
worked   out,    what   it   seems    to  be,   I  can- 
not  well    interpose    any    objection    to    Mr. 
Hays    retiring    from    the    Cabinet    to    take 
up     a     work     so     important.       It     is     too 
great    an    opportunity    for    a   helpful    pub- 
lic   service    for    him    to    refuse.       I    shall 
be    more    than    sorry    to    have    him    retire 
from    the    Cabinet    where    he    has    already 
made  so  fine  a  record,  but  we  have  agreed 
to     look     upon     the     situation     from     the 
broadest      viewpoint      and      to     seek     the 
highest    public    good." 
Mr.     Hays     established     offices     as     President 
of   the    Motion    Picture    Producers    and    Distribu- 
tors  of  America,  Inc.,  on   March   4   at   522    Fifth 
Avenue.      Articles   of  Incorporation   were    signed 
at    Albany    on   March   11.

As  descriptive  of  the  purposes  of  the  organiza- 
tion  the   Certificate  of  Incorporation   states: 
"The    object    for    which    the       corpora- 
tion   is    to    be    created    is    to    foster    the 
common    interests    of    those    engaged     in 
the      motion      picture      industry      in      the 
United   States,  by   establishing:  and   main- 
taining      the       highest       possible       moral 
and    artistic    standards   in    motion   picture 
production,  by  developing  the  educational 
as    well    as    the    entertainment    value    and 
the     general     visefulness     of     the     motion 
picture,  by  diffusing  accurate  and  reliable 
information    with    reference   to   the   indus- 
try,  by   reforming   abuses   relative    to    the 
industry,    by    securing    freedom    from    un- 
just  or  unlawful   exactions,   and   by   other 
lawful    and    proper   means." 
During    the     first     months     of    its     work,     the 
Association    has    gathered    an    organization    and 
has     pushed     forward     various     projects     dealing 
with    the    relationship    of    the    public   to   the   Mo 
tion    Picture    industry    or    with    the    mutual    bu 
non-competitive    interests    of    the    several    mem 
ber   companies. 

The    motion    picture    industry    has    been    ham 
pered   by   reason   of  confusion   in  the  contractua 
relations     between     distributors     and     exhibitors 
The   associated   producers   and    distributors    havt 
been  in  frequent  conference  with  representative 
of    exhibitors'    organizations    working    toward 
standardization   of   various   clauses   in    their   con 
tracts.        While     no     date     can     be     assigned     for 
the     completion     of     this     work,     agreement     has 
been    reached    on    a    number    of    clauses,    mark- 
ing    real     progress,     and     the     prospect     for     an 
accord    on    the    remainder   is    hopeful.

The  theft  of  films  for  unwarranted  exhihi- 
tion  in  America,  and  more  often  for  export,  had 
assumed  propoitions  not  only  disquieting  to 
the  industry  hut  inimical  to  puhlic  interest. 
With  little  puhlicity,  this  prolilem  has  heen 
quietly  hut  vigorously  attacked,  and  suhstan- 
tial  progress  toward  its  solution  has  heen  made. 
The  great  volume  and  the  widespread  dis- 
tribution of  American  films,  both  in  this  coun- 
try and  abroad,  gave  rise  to  a  number  of  com- 
plaints on  the  part  of  foreign  nations  or  foreign 
governments  regarding  the  method  of  depic- 
tion of  their  people  on  the  screen.  In  ont 
case,  an  embargo  against  American  producers 
was  enforced.  By  negotiation  with  the  em- 
bassies of  the  countries  concerned,  and,  in 
one  case,  by  the  dispatch  of  an  emissary  to 
the  foreign  capital  involved,  this  situation  has 
been    materially   bettered. 

In  late  August,  due  to  existing  and  pros- 
pective strikes  on  the  railroads  and  in  the 
mines,  the  fuel  situation  threatened  to  become 
acute.  Negotiations  were  begun  with  State 
and  Federal  authorities,  and  a  suggested  pro- 
gram of  curtailment  was  sent  to  all  member 
companies  to  be  relayed  by  them  to  their  ex- 
changes and  then  to  the  individual  theaters. 
An  option  was  secured  also  upon  a  quantity 
of  coal  which  was  put  at  the  disposal  of  the 
member  companies.  Fortunately,  the  settle- 
ment of  the  strikes  before  the  shortage  became 
critical  averted  the  necessity  for  decisive  action 
relative  to  the  securing  of  adequate  fuel  for 
heat,  light,  and  power  of  picture  theaters  dur- 
ing   the    coming    winter. 

On  May  9,  Mr.  Hays  addressed  a  general 
letter  to  the  members  of  his  association,  saying 
in   part : 

"These    pictures    now    being    made    will 
come    out     soon,     and     they     will     be     the 
proof    either    of    our    honesty    of    purpose 
or    oi:r    failure.      They    will    be    the    proof 
either   of   our   ability   to   correct   our   evils 
ourselves,    or   of  our   inability    to   run   our 
own  business.     There  is  nothing  in  which 
we   can    possibly    be    engaged    which    is    of 
as    much    importance    to    the    success    of 
our  efforts  as  to  make  certain   that   these 
very     pictures,     the     first     pictures     made 
after    the     organization     of    the     Associa- 
tion,   shall    show   successful   effort    toward 
'establishing  and  maintaining   the   highest 
possible    moral    and    artistic     standard.'  " 
While   no   "white"   or   "official"    or   "approved" 
or    "Hays"    lists     have    been     published    by     the 
Associated  Producers   and  Distributors,   the   gen- 
eral   and    consistent     betterment    in     the    quality 
of    currently    released    films    is    indicated    by    the 
comment     prevalent     tliroughout     the     nation,     in 
the  press  and  elsewhere.      As   a   random   example 
take    this    recent   editorial    expression    (typical    of 
hundreds)     from     the     Syracuse     (N.     Y.)     Post 
Standard : 

"It  was  fortunate  for  the  movies  that 
Will  Hays  accepted  the  director-general- 
ship, for  it  gave  the  spur  to  the  pro- 
ducers to  change  their  course  from 
sensualism  to  sense.  He  went  to  the  in- 
dustry at  an  opportune  time  and  trans- 
lated the  sentiment  of  the  public  to  the 
producers  in  unmistakable  language. 
The  pictures  which  have  been  released 
since  his  incumbency  prove  his  influence 
and  that  the  magnates  of  the  industry 
were  not  impervious  to  common  sense 
and  sane  reasoning.  Therefore,  the 
movies  today  are  on  a  much  higher  plane 
than  they  were,  than  they  have  been 
in  their  history,  and  the  films  that  are 
being    shown    are    superior. 

"If  the  influence  of  Mr.  Hays  and  the 
attitude  of  the  producers  continue,  there 
will  be  no  further  discussion  of  the  need 
of  stricter  censorship;  the  industry  itself 
will  prove  that  there  is  no  cause  for 
such  supervision.  One  has  but  to  re- 
call the  new  pictures  that  have  been 
shown  in  Syracuse  for  the  last  few 
months  to  realize  that  the  conditions 
that  called  out  severe  censure,  that  dis- 
gusted the  motion  picture  spectators 
have  passed.     It  is  well." 


A  considerable  portion  of  the  work  of  Mr. 
Hays'  office  has  been  concerned  with  the  in- 
terpretation of  the  motion  picture  industry 
to  the  public.  Mr.  Hays  personally  has  ad- 
dressed a  considerable  number  of  groups  in- 
cluding the  National  Publichers  Association 
in  April,  the  Motion  Picture  Theatre  Owners  at 
Washington,  and  the  Carnegie  Institute  at 
Pittsburgh  in  May;  the  Theatre  Owners  Cham- 
ber of  Commerce  and  the  General  Federat  on 
of  Women's  Clubs  at  Chautaugua  in  June;  tlie 
National  Education  Association  at  Boston  in 
July,  and  an  assembly  of  Minnesota  exUibitors 
in  August.  He  has  talked  also  to  the  Friars 
Club  The  Associated  Motion  Picture  Adver- 
tiser's, The  Philadelphia  Civic  Forum  and  to 
various  other  audiences.  Other  members  of 
his  staff  have  been  assigned  to  attend  additional 
meetings,  such  as  the  Minnesota  Convention 
of  the  Associated  Advertising  Clubs  of  the 
World,  The  Harrisburg  meeting  of  the  Pennsyl- 
vania State  Editorial  Association,  The  Atlanta 
Conference  of  Women's  Organizations,  the 
Indiana  and  New  York  Federation  of  Women's 
Clubs,  an  assembly  of  Michigan  exhibitors  at 
Detroit,     and     so     forth. 

In  addition,  a  meeting  was  called  in  June, 
at  New  York,  attended  by  upwards  of  one 
hundred  twenty-five  representatives  of  national, 
civic,  religious,  educational,  and  welfare  or- 
ganizations, together  with  representatives  of 
exhibitors',  actors',  and  other  associations. 
After  an  all-day  conference  relative  to  standards 
in  motion  pictures,  the  meeting  itself  elected 
a  group  to  perpetuate  its  organization.  As 
a  result  there  has  since  been  organized  a  gen- 
eral committee  having  upon  it  representatiyes 
of  one  hundred  nationally  organized  associa- 
tions, an  executive  committee  representative  of 
a  score  of  organizations  having  upwards  of 
eleven  million  members.  The  Executive  Com- 
mittee meets  monthly,  and  in  order  that  it  may 
has  employed  its  own  Executive  Secretary, 
remain  in  closest  contact  with  the  industry,  it 
whose  office  is  at  the  headquarters  of- the  Pro- 
ducers and  Distributors.  These  representatiyes 
will  not  only  bring  to  the  producers  advice 
which  will  be  invaluable  as  to  the  needs  and 
wishes  of  great  groups  of  the  public,  but  will 
send  word  to  their  hundreds  of  thousands  of 
members  telling  them  of  the  good  films,  in 
order  that  there  may  come  to  these  pictures  the 
largest    possible    public    support. 

At  the  last  annual  meeting  of  the  National 
Education  Association,  Mr.  Hays  proffered  the 
facilities  of  the  member  companies  of  his  asso- 
ciation in  the  improvement  of  pictures  for 
pedagogic  use.  President  Owen  in  October  ap- 
pointed a  committee  headed  by  Dr.  Charles 
Judd,  Director  of  the  School  of  Education  of 
the  University  of  Chicago.  With  this  Com- 
mittee, acting  with  the  Federal  Commissioner 
of  Education,  Dr.  John  J.  Tigert.  and  with 
other  educational  authorities,  the  Producers 
and  Distributors  began  in  the  late  fall  of 
1922  an  effort  to  "develop  the  educational  as 
well  as  the  entertainment  value  of  the  motion 
pictures."  This  movement  will,  no  doubt,  result 
in  making  certain  the  production  of  films 
for  classroom  work,  which  will  be  scientifically, 
psychologically,  and  pedagogically  sound  and  be 
a  distinct  contribution  to  the  educational  forces 
of    the    world. 

In  the  fall  of  1922  the  first  popular  vote  in 
America  on   motion   picture   censorship   accurred. 

The  legislature  of  Massachusetts  in  the  ad- 
ministration of  Governor  Calvin  Coolidge,  had 
passed  a  bill  providing  for  state  censorship, 
which  the  Governor  vetoed.  A  similar  bill  was 
enacted  by  the  next  legistlature,  and  signed 
by  Governor  Cox  but  was  held  in  abeyance  by  a 
referendum  petition.  At  the  elections  of  No- 
vember 7th  the  censorship  bill  was  repudiated 
and  the  referendum  upheld  by  a  vote  of  545,- 
919  to  207,476.  The  highest  vote  received 
by  any  candidate  on  any  ticket  for  any  office 
was  that  of  the  successful  gubernatorial  can- 
didate— 468,277 — less  by  77,000  than  the  anti- 
censorship     total     piled     up. 

In  November,  writing  to  a  number  of  pub- 
lishers who,  at  the  beginning  of  his  incumbency. 


332 


had     tendered     him     a     testimonial     dinner,     Mr. 
Hays    stated: 

"The  development  of  a  new  spirit  of 
confidence  and  cooperation  within  the 
industry  was  the  first  essential  because 
only  from  such  a  relationship  can  come 
the  united  action  necessary  for  effective 
execution.  That  spirit  obtains  and  it 
includes  producers,  distributors,  exhibi- 
tors, authors,  directors,  actors,  camera- 
men, mechanics,  and  all  the  rest.  The 
development  of  the  right  relation  between 
exhibitor  and  distributor  is  a  continu- 
ing problem,  of  course,  with  its  solution 
based  primarly  on  a  continuing  mutual 
fair     dealing.     .     .     . 

"Further,  the  producers  have  taken 
definite  steps  to  make  the  fullest  possible 
use  of  the  motion  picture  as  an  instru- 
ment of  international  amity.  They  arc 
making  certain  that  all  films  which  are 
sent  abroatl,  wherever  they  may  go,  shall 
correctly  portray  American  life,  ideals 
and  opportunities.  We  will  sell  Amer- 
ica to  the  world  with  motion  pictures. 
American  producers  furnish  the  majority 
of  all  pictures  shown  in  the  world,  and 
this  correct  depicting  of  the  life  and 
habits  of  our  own  and  foreign  people, 
each  to  the  other,  will  go  far  toward 
bringing  the  international  miderstanding 
and  appreciation  vhich  moves  in  the 
direction   of   world    peace. 

"Primarily  a  source  of  entertainment, 
the  importance  of  motion  pictures,  as 
such,  is  measured  by  the  imperative 
necessity  of  amusement  for  our  people. 
And  make  no  mistake  about  such  im- 
perative necessity.  Just  as  you  serve 
the  leisure  hours  of  the  masses  so  do 
you  rivet  the  girders  of  society.  The 
industry  accepted  the  challenge  in  the 
demand  of  the  American  people  for  the 
highest  quality  of  art,  morals  and  enter- 
tainment in  motion  pictures  as  the  prin- 
cipal amusement  of  the  great  majority 
of  all  our  people  and  the  sole  amusement 
of  inillions  and  millions.  They  recog- 
nize that  any  evil  that  might  be  in  mo- 
tion pictures  can  be  removed  and  the 
highest  standards  of  art  and  entertain- 
ment attained  and  all  the  advantages  of 
pictures  retained  at  the  place  where,  at 
the  time  when  the  pictures  are  made  by 
those  who  make  them  and  in  no  other 
way. 

"Beginning  a  new  drive  this  year  for 
the  best  possibe  pictures,  measuring  up 
toward  what  the  standard  should  be  and 
which  many  pictures  already  had 
achieved,  earnestly  asking  the  public's 
cooperation  and  hoping,  of  course,  from 
every  possible  standpoint,  selfish  and 
unselfish,  to  move  in  the  right  direction, 
they  have  brought  out,  and  are  bringing 
out,  a  series  of  pictures  which  we  are 
hoping  will  attract  the  public's  at- 
tention, as  the  evidence  both  of  their 
good  faith  and  their  ability  to  accomplish, 
and  as  an  augury  for  still  better  things 
to  \»hich  their  every  effort  shall  be  di- 
rected. The  maintaining  of  the  highest 
standard  is  quite  as  essential  as  it.s  at- 
tainment and  there  can  be  and  will  be 
no  slipping  backward,  nor  loss  of  any 
improvement  that  may  be  accomplished. 
These  pictures  are  being  received  in 
appreciation,  and  the  public  will  not  he 
unmindful  either  of  the  impossibility  of 
pleasing  every  one  with  every  picture 
or  the  necessity  of  different  types  of 
pictures    for    the    various    types    of    taste 

and     interest 

"I  am  very  hopeful  for  the  future.  It 
is  a  large  undertaking  and  I  again  most 
earnestly  ask  for  your  suggestions  and 
your  active  help.  It  cannot,  of  course, 
be  finished  at  once.  Indeed,  it  can  never 
motion  picture  liko  the  service  of  the 
press    depends    for   its    quality    on    a    con- 


stant   effort.      What    I    hope    to    do    is    to 
make    certain    that    this    effort    for    better 
and       still      better       service      by       motion 
pictures    shall   be   constant   and    that   from 
the    effort    will    come    an    accomplishment 
that   will    mean   the    largest    possible    use- 
fulness."

The  Serial   Outlook 

With  the  improvement  in  general  conditions  and 
the  improvement  in  the  motion  picture  industry, 
that  at  this  time  is  already  considerably  advanced, 
I  see  no  reason  why  serials  should  not  show  a 
parallel  improvement,  and,  as  in  other  pictures, 
the  better  conditions  are,  the  better  market  there 
is  for  the  best  of  its  kind. 

Naturally,  when  business  at  the  box  office  is 
bad  and  general  conditions  are  bad,  there  are  a 
great  many  exhibitors  who  are  unfortunately  on  a 
vigorous  hunt  for  low  rentals,  and  cheap  does  as 
cheap  is,  consequently  business  gets  worse.  That 
is   true   of   serials  as  well   as  of  features. 

Good  serials  cost  a  lot  of  money  to  make,  and, 
of  course,  are  destined  for  the  discerning  exhibitor 
who  expects  and  does  take  in  considerably  more 
money  at  his  box  office  and  can  well  afford  to 
pay  a  rental  sufficient  to  cover  the  increased  cost 
of  such  a  serial. 

It  is  not  generally  understood  why  a  good 
serial  costs  more  to  make  than  any  other  kind 
of  volume  production,  but  it  is  nevertheless  a  fact, 
and  the  reasons  are  obvious  when  given  proper 
consideration. 

Each  episode  of  two  reels  must  be  quite  com- 
plete in  itself  with  a  beginning,  story  and  climax, 
that  in  most  cases  exceeds  as  a  spectacle  anything 
that  is  done  in  a  feature.  A  great  deal  of  care 
and  expense  is  involved  in  the  preparation  of  the 
story  ;  the  cast  must  be  of  extraordinary  excel- 
lence, because  it  must  continue  through  fifteen 
separate  entertainments,  without  being  inconsistent 
or  displeasing.  The  director  and  stars  must  be 
the  very  highest  types  of  their  profession.  The 
emotions  portrayed  run  the  entire  scale  in  prac- 
tically every  episode,  and  would  be  ridiculous  were 
they  attempted  by  any  less  skillful. 

A  great  many  of .  the  same  patrons  that  attend 
the  theaters  with  extreme  discernment  as  to  the 
consistency,  beauty  and  excellence  of  a  feature 
story  well  produced,  are  constant  patrons  of  the 
serial,  but  when  attending  the  serial  night,  or 
nights,  they  go  to  satisfy  an  entirely  different 
craving  for  entertainment.  Some  of  the  most  in- 
tellectual men  and  women  have  described  their  con- 
stant patronage  of  serials  in  this  fashion.  They 
enjoy  thrills  ;  they  enjoy  permitting  their  imagina- 
tion to  take  rather  extraordinary  flights ;  they  en- 
joy the  melo-drama;  they  enjoy  the  stunt  and  they 
enjoy  the  mystery  and  the  depth  of  plot  that  is 
made  possible  in  a  story  whose  picturization  takes 
thirty  or  more  reels  to  portray — and  are  we  not 
all  more  or  less,  mostly  more,  actuated  by  the  same 
impulses?  Thus,  certainly  serials  are  of  a  form 
of  motion  picture  entertainment  that  accomplishes, 
in  the  most  instances,  what  the  feature  does  not, 
in  that  it  practically  completes  the  illusion  for 
the  patron  and  carries  him  entirely  away  from 
himself. 

When  such  demands  are  made  by  the  patron, 
and,  of  course,  the  exhibitor,  is  it  any  wonder  that 
serials  are  difficult  to  produce  and  it  costs  prodi- 
gious sums  of  money  to  carry  out  the  ambitions 
that  any  serial  producer  has  to  have  in  order  to 
satisfy    such    demands? 

Spurred  on  by  the  success  of  competent  serial 
producers,  practically  everybody  in  the  business 
has  at  some  time  or  other  made  an  effort  to  make 


363 


a  serial,  whcih  in  practically  every  instance  was 
attended  with  the  only  result  a  novice  could  hope 
for,  and  that  was  dismal  failure. 

All  such  serials  foisted  upon  an  unsuspecting 
public,  from  time  to  time,  disgusts  and  discourages 
them  with  serials  in  general,  thus  it  is  that  the 
industry  has  witnessed  cycles  of  expansion  and 
depression,  each  of  which  has  existed  about  two 
years. 

About  three  years  ago  the  market  was  surfeited 
with  a  most  unusual  number  of  serials  of  every 
kind  and  description,  a  great  many  of  which  were 
very  bad,  hence  a  reaction  took  place  that  has 
been  depressing  indeed,  but  it  spent  its  fury 
some  four  or  live  months  ago,  and  the  serial  busi- 
ness is  again  coming  into  considerable  popularity, 
and  since  the  majority  of  the  serials  on  the  market 
today,  and  those  in  the  course  of  preparation,  are 
of  unusual  excellence,  how  can  we  anticipate  any- 
thing else  than  a  cycle  of  unusual  prosperity  and 
popularity    for    the    serials?

Serials  Shorter 

The  trend  of  the  picture  business  today  is  for 
better  pictures.  Exhibitors  are  willing  to  buy 
good  pictures.  They  won't  run  poor  pictures  at 
any  price.  Today  only  a  good  serial  is  wanted. 
The   day   of   the   "kill-em-quick"   serial   is   past. 

1922  and  1923  will  see  even  better  serials  made 
than  in  the  past.  There  is  a  strong  demand  from 
exhibitors  for  ten  and  twelve  episode  serials.  This 
does  not  mean  that  they  will  not  buy  the  longer 
serials,  but  simply  that  they  prefer  the  shorter 
product. 

Some  exhibitors  felt  that  serials  were  through. 
They  felt  that  the  public  was  tired  of  them.  The 
facts  are,  that  the  public  will  not  stand  poor 
.serials,  that  they  will  not  go  to  see  long  drawn-out 
intelligence-insulting   junk.

Ohio   State   Board   of   Standards 

All    scenes    which    are    obscene,    salacious,    inde- 
cent,   immoral,    or    teach    false    ethics,    such    as    the 
following,   should   be  eliminated: 
(a)   SEX 

(1)  Productions    which    emphasize    and    ex- 

aggerate sex  appeal  or  depict  scenes 
therein  exploiting  interest  in  sex  in 
an  immoral  or  suggestive  form  or 
manner. 

(2)  Those     based     upon    white     slavery     or 

commercialized  vice  or  scenes  show- 
ing the  procurement  of  women  or  any 
of  the  activities  attendant  upon  this 
traffic. 

(3)  Those    thematically    making    prominent 

an  illicit  love  affair  which  tends  to 
make  virtue  odious  and  vice  attractive. 

(4)  Scenes  which  exhibit  nakedness   or  per- 

sons scantily  and  suggestively  dressed, 
particularly  suggestive  bedroom  and 
bath  room  scenes  and  scenes  of  incit- 
ing   dances. 

(5)  Scenes  which  unnecessarily  prolong  ex- 
pressions or  demonstrations  of  pas- 
sionate  love. 


(6)  Stories  or  scenes  which  are  vulgar 
and  portray  improper  gestures,  pos- 
tures,    and    attitudes. 

(7)  Scenes  which  tend  to  give  the  idea  that 

sexual  vice  accompanied  by  luxury 
makes     vice     excusable. 

(b)  VICE,  CRIME  AND  VIOLENCE 

(1)  Themes    predominantly    concerned    with 

the  underworld  or  vice  or  crime,  and 
like  scenes;  unless  the  scenes  are  a 
part  of  an  essential  conflict  between 
good    and    evil. 

(2)  Stories     which     make     crime,     drunken- 

ness and  gambling,  and  like  scenes 
which  show  the  use  of  narcotics  and 
other  unnatural  practices  dangerous 
to    social    morality,    attractive. 

(3)  Stories    and   scenes   which   may   instruct 

the  immature  and  susceptible  in 
methods  of  committing  crime  or  by 
cumulative  processes  emphasize  crime 
and    the    commission    of    crime. 

(4)  Stories     or     scenes     which     unduly     em- 

phasize bloodshed  and  violence  with- 
out justification  in  the  structure  of 
the    body. 

(5)  Scenes    which   tend   to  produce  approval 

of  business,  institutions  or  conditions, 
that  naturally  tend  to  degrade  and 
deprave   mankind. 

(6)  Productions    whose    tendency    is    to    in- 

cite sympathy  for  those  engaged  in 
parasitical    or   criminal    activities. 

(7)  Productions    that    teach    fatalism   or   the 

futility  of  individual  resistance  of  ad- 
versity. 

(8)  Expiation     of    crime    by     some     act     of 

physical    bravery. 

(9)  Crime  must  not  be  made  attractive  and 

the  punishment  must  be  clearly  and 
adequately  portrayed. 
(10)  Plays  which  exhibit  prominently  movie 
stars  who  have  committed  crimes  or 
whose  good  names  are  in  question, 
judged  by  generally  accepted  moral 
standards. 

(c)  RESPECT   FOR   SOCIAL   INSTITUTIONS 

(1)  Scenes  which  riducule  or  deprecate  pub- 

lic officials,  ofiicers  of  the  law,  the 
United  States  Army,  the  United  States 
acious    or    deceptive. 

Navy,  or  other  governmental  authority, 
or  which  tend  to  weaken  the  authority 
of    the    law. 

(2)  Scenes    which    offend    the    religious    be- 

lief of  any  person,  creed  or  sect  or 
ridicules  ministers,  priests,  rabbis,  or 
recognized  leaders  of  any  religious 
sect,  and  also  which  are  disrespectful 
to  objects  or  symbols  used  in  connec- 
tion   with    any    religion. 

(3)  National,  racial  and  class  hatred,  shovild 

not    be    fostered. 

(d)  SUBTITLES 

(1)   Titles  and   subtitles   should   not   be    sal- 
acious.

The   glorification   of  a   crook    is   discountenanced. 

Gruesome  and  unduly,  distressing  scenes  will  be 
disapproved.  These  include  shooting,  stabbing, 
profuse  bleeding,  prolonged  views  of  men  dying, 
and  of  corpses,  lashing  and  whipping,  and  other 
torture  scenes,  hangings,  lynchings,  electrocutions, 
surgical  operations  and  views  of  persons  in  de- 
lirium  or   insane.

exposed   may   be   disapproved. 

Pictures  and  parts  of  pictures  dealing  with  abor- 
tion and  malpractice  will  be  disapproved.  These 
will  include  themes  and  incidents  having  to  do  with 
eugenics,  "birth  control,"  "race  suicide"  and  sim- 
ilar  subjects. 

Stories  or  scenes  holding  up  to  ridicule  and  re- 
proach races,  classes  or  other  social  groups,  as 
well  as  the  irreverent  and  sacrilegious  treatment 
of  religious  bodies  or  other  things  held  to  be  sa- 
cred, will  be  disapproved.  The  materialization  of 
the  figure  of   Christ  may  be  disapproved. 

Pictures  which  deal  with  counterfeiting  will  be 
disapproved.      (Federal    Law). 

Scenes  showing  men  and  women  living  together 
without  marriage,  and  in  adultery,  will  be  disap- 
proved. Discussion  of  the  question  of  the  con- 
summation of  marriage,  in  pictures,  may  be  dis- 
approved. 

The  brutal  treatment  of  children  and  of  ani- 
mals may  lead  to  the  disapproval  of  the  theme,  or 
of   incidents   in   film   stories. 

Cruelty    to   animals   is    highly   objectionable. 

The  use  of  profane  and  objectionable  language 
in  subtitles  will  be  disapproved. 

Objectionable  titles,  as  well  as  subtitles  of  pic- 
tures,   will   be   disapproved. 

Views  of  incendiarism,  burning,  wrecking  and 
the  destruction  of  property,  which  may  put  like 
action  into  the  minds  of  those  of  evil  instincts,  or 
may  degrade  the  morals  of  the  young,  will  be  dis- 
approved. 

Gross  and  oflfensive  drunkenness,  especially  if 
women  have  a  part  in  the  scenes,  may  be  dis- 
approved. 

Pictures  which  deal  at  length  with  gun  play, 
and  the  use  of  knives,  and  are  set  in  the  under- 
world, will  be  disapproved.  When  the  whole  theme 
is  crime,  unrelieved  by  other  scenes,  the  film  will 
be  disapproved.  Prolonged  fighting  scenes  will  be 
shortened  and  brutal  fights  will  be  wholly  disap- 
proved. 

Vulgarities  of  a  gross  kind,  such  as  often  appear 
in  slapstick  and  other  screen  comedies,  will  be 
disapproved.  Comedy  which  bur!.sques  morgues, 
funerals,  hospitals,  insane  asylufs,  the  lying-in  of 
women  and   houses   of  ill-fame   will  be  disapproved. 

Sensual  kissing  and  love-making  scenes,  men 
and  \yomen  in  bed  together  and  indelicate  sexual 
situations,  whether  in  comedies  or  pictures  of 
other  classes,  will  be  disapproved.  Bathing  scene§ 
which  pass  the  limits  of  propriety,  lewd  and  im- 
modest dancing,  the  needless  exhibition  of  women 
in  their  night  dresses  or  underclothing,  will  he 
disapproved. 

Views  of  women  smoking  will  not  be  disap- 
proved as  such,  but  when  women  are  shown  in 
suggestive  positions,  or  their  manner  of  smoking 
is  suggestive  or  degrading,  such  scenes  will  be  dis- 
approved. 

That  the  theme  or  story  of  a  picture  is  adapted 
from  a  publication,  whether  classical  or  not,  or 
that  portions  of  a  picture  follow  paintings  or  other 
illustrations,  is  not  a  sufficient  reason  for  the  ap- 
proval  of  a   picture  or   portions   of  a   picture. 

Themes  or  incidents  in  picture  stories,  which 
are  designed  to  inflame  the  mind  to  improper  ad- 
ventures, or  to  establish  false  standards  of  con- 
duct, coming  under  the  foregoing  classes,  or  of 
other  kinds,   will  be  disapproved. 

Banners,  posters  or  other  advertising  matter 
concerning  motion  pictures  must  follow  the  rules 
laid  down   for   the  pictures  themselves. 

New  York  Standards 

A  statement  issued  by  the  Motion  Picture  Com 
mission  of  the  State  of  New  York  says  that  it 
"has  not  established  any  fixed  rules  or  standards 
for  the  judging  of  pictures  except  those  prescribed 
by  the  statute  creating  the  Commission. 


"The  Commission  has  deemed  it  wise  not  to  . 
attempt  to  formulate  fixed  standards  or  rules  for 
the  reviewing  of  pictures,  but  rather  to  examine 
each  picture  on  its  merits  to  determine  whether 
the  film,  or  any  portion  of  it,  violates  any  pro- 
visions of  the  statute." 

Dallas,    Texas 

The  City  of  Dallas  maintains  one  acting  Censor 
and  a  Board  of  Appeals  of  seven  members  but  has 
never    established    a    printed    code   of   standards. 

Standards    of    Virgjinia    State    Board    of 
Censors,  Richmond. 

A  statement  from  Chairman  E.  R.  Chestcrman, 
dated  Sept.  28,  says:  "As  yet  this  Board,  which 
formally  began  its  work  on  August  1,  1922,  has 
not  deemed  it  judicious  to  promulgate  any  review 
standards  for  the  examination  of  motion  pictures. 
Possibly  we  may  never  attempt  to  put  our  stand- 
ards into  concrete,  inelastic  form,  since  we  prefer 
to  judge  each  film  on  its  own  merits.  Then  too, 
we  prefer  to  consider  each  picture  as  an  entirety, 
though  it  goes  without  saying  that  we  scrutinize 
questionable  scenes  and  often  order  their  elimina- 
tion. But  after  all,  a  wholesome  moral  lesson 
Can  offset  the  effect  of  many  scenes,  which,  if 
seen  in  another  connection,  would  be  decidedly 
objectionable. 

"1  should  say  that  our  present  working  standards 
are  based  on  the  language  of  the  statute  under 
which  we  are  operating.  We  bar  every  motion 
picture  or  scene  thereof  which  in  our  opinion  may 
be  classified  as  "obscene,  indecent,  immoral  or 
inhuman,  or  which  is  of  such  character  that  its 
exhibition  would  tend  to  corrupt  morals  or  incite 
to   crime."

of  Censors,  45  Richmond  St.,  W., 

Toronto 

No  picture  will  be  allowed  which  shows  a  suc- 
cessful balking  of  the  law. 

The  board  will  use  judgment  in  eliminating  un- 
warranted display  of  foreign  flags,  and  will  also 
call  for  a  respectful  presentation  of  all  British 
flags. 

All  pictures  showing  animals  being  treated  un- 
kindly,   tortured    or    killed    will   be    condemned. 

Pictures  which  deal  with  firearms  or  display  of 
knives  or   guns   may   be   eliminated   or   cut. 

Shocking  and  unnecessary  details  of  deeds  of 
violence  and  struggle  scenes  will  be  cut  out.  This 
also  applies  to  the  rough  handling  of  women,  chil- 
dren, the  aged  or  infirm,  and  close-up  views  of 
horrid,  bruised  or  mutilated  faces,  or  faces  show- 
ing agony  and  suffering;  also  the  struggles  of 
drowning  people  and  close-up  views  of  dead  peo- 
ple's  faces   floating   in    the    water. 

Constructive  suggestions  which  might  be  con- 
ducive to  producing  lawlessness  or  crime,  e.  g., 
methods  of  safe  cracking,  picking  locks,  raising 
cheques,   robbing   houses,   molesting   persons,   etc. 

In  no  instances  will  suicide  or  incentives  to 
such  be  shown. 

Close-up  scenes,  prolonged  or  instructive  scenes 
of  murder,  or  showing  of  executions  will  not  be 
allowed. 

Each  question  of  costume  or  taste  must  be 
considered  on  the  basis  of  morals.  Pictures  of 
women  almost  wholly  dressed,  but  displaying  a 
lavish  amount  of  lingerie,  are  startling.  The  same 
is  true  of  excessively  low-cut  gowns.  Under  no 
consideration  will  the  board  pass  any  pictures  con- 
taining incidentally  or  extensively  the  nude  form. 

Burlesques  or  scenes  of  ridicule  of  clergy.  Sal- 
vation Army  or  any  other  religious  work  will  be 
eliminated. 

All  pictures  must  be  kept  clean  from  sugges- 
tion, vulgarity  and  profanity. 

Scenes  in  houses  of  ill-repute  and  scenes  of  de- 
bauches   will    be    cut    out,    also    any    instructive   de-

tails  of  gambling,  etc.,  will  be  eliminated.  Undue 
and  unnecessary  drniking  scenes  will  be  eliminated. 

Fifty  per  cent  of  all  serials  must  be  shown  at 
one  sitting. 

The  board  will  insist  that  sex  problems  be  treat- 
ed  with  seriousness  and  reserve. 

Constructive  suggestions  of  the  use  or  means  of 
illegitimately  procuring  habit-forming  drugs,  nar- 
cotics,  poisons,   etc.,    will   be   eliminated. 

Instructions  prohibit  the  display  of  any  adver- 
tising which  shows  scenes  of  violence,  display  of 
guns  or  knives  indicating  shooting  or  stabbing, 
nudity,  vulgar  display  of  women's  forms,  objec- 
tionable titles  regarding  sex  relations,  or  any 
eliminations  that  have  been  made  by  the  board.

OBJECTIONABLE     CHARACTERISTICS     AS 
PRESCRIBED    BY   ACT   OF    PARLIAMENT 

No     film     shall     be     registered     which,     in     the 

opinion    of    the    censorship — 

a — is  blasphemous,   indecent   or   obscene  : 

b. — is    likely    to    be    injurious    to    morality,    or    to 

encourage    or    incite    to    crime: 


c. — is  likely  to  be  offensive  to  any  ally  of 
Great    Britain    or : 

d. — depicts  any  matter  the  exhibition  of  which 
is   undesirable   in   the   public   interest. 

B 

OBJECTIONABLE     CHARACTERISTICS     AS 

DEFINED  BY  THE  COMMONWEALTH 

FILM    CENSORSHIP 

1. — Indecent,   suggestive   or   insufficient   dress. 

2. — Embraces  overstepping  the  limits  of  affec- 
tion, or  which  would  be  contrary  to  propriety  in 
ordinary    life. 

3. — Nude   figures. 

4. — -Positions  of  the  actors  which  are  suggestive 
of   sexual   passion    or   desire. 

5. — Scenes  which  might  be  offensive  to  the  re- 
ligious  feeling  of  any  class   of  the  community. 

6. — Scenes  which  might  be  thought  subversive 
to  morality   or  virtue. 

7. — Scenes  which  might  be  morally  harmful,  to 
the   young   especially,   of   both   sex. 

8. — Scenes  which  might  seem  to  encourage  or 
appear  to  view  with  indifference,  breaches  of  law, 
or  perpetration  of  crime. 

9. — Scenes   of  brutal   cruelty   or  violence. 

10. — Scenes  from  which  the  inference  could  be 
drawn  that  offences  against  those  laws,  or  rules, 
or  recognized  social  codes,  which  govern  the  re- 
lations of  the  sexes  in  married  and  single  life, 
are  matters  to  be  overlooked  or  treated  lightly. 
C 

Note:  .The  following  notes  are  based  on  de- 
cisions during  the  past  three  years  and  are  in- 
tended merely  as  a  guide  to  future  requirements 
of  the  Censorship.  They  are  not,  in  any  par- 
ticular,  to  be  regarded  as  precedents. 

1.  Nude  figures — The  nude  human  figure  is  not 
passed.  Moreover  the  suggestion — usually  by 
means  of  sub-titles  that  nudity  is  being  portrayed 
before  other  characters  in  the  film  is  also  ob- 
jected to.  Undraped  statues  are  not  eliminated 
unless  these  are  in  themselves  indecent,  and  ex- 
hibit  something  more   than   mere   nudity. 

2.  Crime — The  treatment  of  the  films  where 
the  whole  theme  deals  with  ordinary  underworld 
vice  or  crime  (thieving  blackmailing,  gambling, 
opium  dens)  depends  entirely  on  the  handling  of 
the  subject.  Retribution  in  some  form  is  neces- 
sary, and  it  should  be  adequate.  If  the  atmosphere 
of  a  crime  film  be  so  heavy,  cynical,  or  callous 
as  to  produce  an  overpowering,  cumulative  effect 
for  evil,  rejection  is  considered  necessary.  On 
the  other  hand  the  final  dominant  impression  left 
on  the  mind  by  some  "crime"  films  has  un- 
doubtedly been  good.  That  would  naturally  be 
the  case,  where  the  crime  has  not  been  too 
grossly  vicious,  and  extensive,  and  has  not  been 
excused    or   made   to   appear   justifiable. 

The  condonation  of  crime  or  vice  is  not  allowed. 
For  example,  the  Censorship  has  objected  to  a 
feature  where  several  people  conspired  success- 
fully to  defeat  the  process  of  the  law  by  deceiving 
the  police  into  thinking  that  a  case  of  murder  (or 
manslaughter)  was  really  the  suicide  of  the  dead 
man. 

Another  aspect  relates  especially  to  juveniles 
taking  the  law  into  their  own  hands.  The  censor- 
ship has  strongly  objected  to  a  young  boy  shoot- 
ing an   outlaw,    or   a   supposed    seducer. 

3.  Sexual  Crime — White  slavery,  free-love,  abor- 
tion or  extended  scenes  in  brothels  are  never 
passed.  Brothel  scenes,  if  very  brief  and  dis- 
creet, are  sometimes  passed.  Under  no  circum- 
stances is  a  woman  allowed  to  sell  her  virtue. 
The  role  of  prostitute  may  be  passed  if  delicately 
handled   and   incidental   to   the  main   theme. 

Erratic  embraces  are  usually  considered  ob- 
jectionable. Any  embrace,  struggle  or  pursuit 
having  for  its  object  the  man's  desire  to  seduce 
the  girl  is  always  cut  to  the  mere  flash,  and  some- 
times   altogether   eliminated. 

The  general  theme  of  seduction  is  carefully 
considered.      It   must   be   delicately    handled. 

Adultery,  if  one  of  the  parties  is  married,  is 
rarely  allowed  to  be  portrayed — even  briefly.  If 
neither  is  married  the  scenes  showing  the  two 
actually  living  together  are  reduced  to  the  min- 
imum necessary  to  preserve  continuity.  Sub-title 
references  to  adultery  having  occurred  in  the  past 
are  usually  passed  providing  the  wording  is  not 
gross. 


341 


Marital  infidelity  is  carefully  considered.  How- 
ever, considerable  latitude  is  allowed  in  "slap- 
stick' and  "broad"  (legitimate)  comedy.  In  the 
latter  case  it  is  considered  that  the  audience  thinks 
chiefly  of  the  humour  in  the  complicated  situa- 
tions which  arise,  and  pays  little  heed  to  the 
fact  that  the  relationship  between  the  actors  may 
occasionally  be  suggestive  of  irregularity.  How- 
ever, comedies  which  tend  to  sneer  at  or  seriously 
ridicule  the  established  conventions  regarding  mar- 
ried and  single  life  would  be  rejected.  Especially 
does  this  apply  to  stories,  humourous  or  serious, 
where  infidelity  or  immorality  is  "framed  up"  so 
as  improperly  to  secure  a  divorce  or  to  ruin  a 
person's  character  for  reasons  of  blackmail  or 
politics  ("Name  Upa"  or  theft  or  dishonesty  do 
not    come   under    this    category). 

4.  Slapstick  Comedies — A  considerable  amount 
of  latitude  is  allowed,  but  sub-title  inuendos  or 
bed-room  mix-ups  are  carefully  considered.  Gross 
vulgarities  and  suggestive  "jokes"  actions,  or 
postures    are    always    cut. 

5.  Brutality — Excessive  brutality  and  violence  is 
not  allowed,  especially  where  women  are  roughly 
treated  by  men  (i.  e.,  apart  from  any  motive  of 
immorality).  Fights  between  women  are  care- 
fully considered.  In  any  fight,  close-ups  of  fierce 
throttling,  unnecessary  vicious  and  inhuman  acts, 
blood-stained  faces,  and  wounds  are  generally  cut. 
In  other  words,  scenes  of  barbarity  are  not  per- 
mitted,  nor  ghastly   exhibitions   of   physical   pain. 

6.  Execution  scenes — are  reduced  to  the  small- 
est possible  duration,  and  all  harrowing,  morbid 
or  gruesome  details  are  rigidly  excised.  This 
applies  not  only  to  the  scenes  immediately  con- 
nected with  the  actual  execution  (which  itself 
is  always  cut),  but  also  to  preceding  scenes  in 
the  prisoner's   cell,  and  so   forth. 

7.  Shooting — Excessive  shooting  and  indiscrim- 
inate fighting  (as  distinct  from  war  films)  reduced 
as  much  as  possible,  particularly  where  point- 
blank,   cold-blooded   killing   takes    place. 

8.  Drugs — Drug  incidents  are  allowed,  except 
that  the  actual  injection  by  hypodermic  syringe 
or  the  name  of  any  poison  is  out.  Where  the 
whole  story  centres  round  drug  habits,  the  film 
is  rejected,  unless  there  are  special  mitigating 
circumstances.  One  film  was  rejected  even  though 
it  showed  a  man  overcoming  the  drug  habit — be- 
cause of  the  vivid  depiction  of  the  attraction  of 
drugs,  which  might  suggest  the  habit  to  people 
who  had  not  previously  thought  of  it. 

9.  Medical  Propaganda — A  film  raising  any  dis- 
tinct medical,  disease,  or  sex-vice  issue  is  passed 
provided  that  the  censorship  is  convinced  that  the 
film  is  of  a  bona-fide  propaganda  nature.  It  is 
customary  to  impose  a  restriction  to  the  eflfect 
that  the  film  may  only  be  shown  in  such  States 
where  the  local  Board  of  Health  gives  its  ap- 
proval. Further,  it  is  sometimes  considered  neces- 
sary to  impose  an  age  limit,  usually  16,  at  ex- 
hibitions. 

10.  Sedition — Films  containing  any  matter  likely 
to  be  detrimental  to  the  British  Empire  in  a 
social,  political  or  national  sense  are  carefully 
considered. 

11.  Main  Titles — Are  altered  if  they  convey  any 
immoral  or  decidedly  suggestive  meaning.  TThe 
following  names  illustrate  the  position :

French  and  Italian  Standards 

In  "The  Morals  of  the  Movie"  Dr.  Oberholtzer, 
formerly  secretary  of  the  Penna.  State  Board  of 
Censors  says  (p.  107)  :  "Since  1916  France  has  had 
a  commission  of  five  members  to  examine  and  con- 
trol the  exhibition  of  film.  Unless  it  be  accom- 
panied by  a  certificate  which  they  have  issued 
no  picture  may  be  shown  in  any  theater  of  the 
country.  So  long  ago  as  in  1913  the  prefects- 
of  the  departments  were  authorized  to  prohibit 
"les  representations,  par  les  cinematographes,  des 
crimes,  executions  capitales  et  d'une  facon  gen- 
erale  de  toutes  scenes  a  caractere  immoral  et 
scandaleux." 

In  Italy  all  pictures  must  be  licensed  before 
they  are  shown.  They  are  inspected  and  censored 
prior  to  certification  with  a  view  to  preventing 
the  exhibition — 

"(a)  Of  pictures  oflfending  against  morals,  good 
manners,  public  decency  and  private  persons. 

"(b)  Of  spectacles  injurious  to  the  national 
fame  and  self-respect,  or  against  the  public  order, 
or  likely  to  disturb  our  good  relations  with  foreign 
powers. 

"(c)  Of  such  as  would  lessen  the  name  and 
fame  of  public  institutions  and  authorities,  or  of 
the  officers  and  agents  of  the  law. 

"(d)  Of  scenes  of  violence,  horror  and  cruelty, 
even  where  animals  rather  than  human  beings  are 
concerned,  or  of  crimes  and  suicides  realistically  re- 
produced ;  and  in  general  of  scenes  representing  per- 
verse actions  or  facts  which  would  be  incentive  to 
crime,  or  be  calculated  to  unsettle  the  mind  and 
provoke   to   evil." 

The  whole  subject  is  under  the  control  of  the 
Minister  of  the   Interior  in   Rome. 

In  Spain  likewise  the  screen  is  subject  to  legal 
regulation.

Suggestions  for  India  Censors 

Censorship  suggestions  to  American  trade  for 
Iiulia,  made  by  Consul  General  A.  W.  Weddell, 
Calcutta  : 

There  are  three  boards  of  censorship  in  India — ■ 
at  Bombay,  Calcutta,  and  Rangoon — which  repre- 
sent the  educational,  religious,  political,  and  com- 
mercial organizations  of  those  cities.  The  charge 
for  censoring  a  picture  is  5  rupees  per  100  feet, 
and  the  picture  is  usually  viewed  by  one  paid 
official  before  its  public  exhibition. 

From  interviews  with  the  various  operators  in 
Calcutta,  the  following  suggestions  are  made  as 
to  producing  and  exporting  American  films  to 
India:  (1)  A  reduction  in  price  by  the  manu- 
facturers for  exhibition  rights  in  India,  (2)  more 
caution  as  to  the  nature  of  the  film  sent  to 
India,  (3)  more  attention  to  detail  in  films  depict- 
ing Indian  life,  (4)  establishment  of  an  American 
agency  in  India  for  the  distribution  of  films  and 
general  management  of  the  trade. 

Censorship  in  the   Phillipines 
Manila,  P.  I. — According  to  the  Manila  Bulletin, 
in    February,    the    mayor    was    requested    by    Gov- 
ernor-General   Leonard    Wood    to    appoint    a    com- 
mittee of  three  to   censor  motion   pictures   here. 

Censorship  in  Holland 

Consul  General  G.  E.  Anderson,  Rotterdam,  re- 
ported  in   February  : 

In  the  past  few  months  the  matter  of  censor- 
ship has  caused  a  great  deal  of  trouble  and  is 
likely  to  cause  more  in  the  near  future.  There 
is  no  general  censorship  law  in  Holland,  and  the 
control  of  the  presentation  of  picture  plays  rests 
with  the  municipal  authorities  in  each  locality. 
In  some  municipalities  all  plays  must  be  censored, 
in  some  only  those  plays  which  are  presented  for 
children.  There  is  a  regular  board  of  censors 
in  The  Hague,  Amsterdam  and  Utrecht.  Things 
are  liberal  in  Rotterdam.  In  Amsterdam  there  has 
been  a  diflference  of  opinion  between  theater 
operators  and  the  board  of  censors  with  the  result 
that  all  the  theaaters  decsided  to  close  for  one 
day  as  a  protest  against  a  ruling  of  the  secretary 
of  the  board  of  censors  over  a  title,  and  since 
plays  presented  for  persons  over  18  years  of  age 
do  not  require  censorship  they  proposed  there- 
after and  imtil  further  notice  to  present  plays  only 
for  persons  over  that  age  limit.  The  difficulty 
later  was  adjusted.  The  result  of  the  present 
system  is  that  permission  to  display  a  picture 
varies  without  reason.  The  Hague,  for  example, 
will  permit  the  universal  exhibition  of  a  film  which 
Utrecht   will   limit   to   adults   or  vice   versa. 

Picture  theater  operators  are  working  for  a 
national  censorship  law  and  a  bill  for  one  has 
passed  the  lower  chamber  of  the  States-General 
and  will  probably  become  a  law  in  the  course  of 
the   next   few   months. 

New  Zealand  Reviewed  3,146  Films 

Figures  for  the  past  year  from  New  Zealand 
show  that  the  censors  there  reviewed  3,146  pic- 
tures totalling  about  4,900,000  feet.  Thirty-eight 
pictures  were  rejected  entirely  and  in  240  elimina- 
tions were  ordered.  The  New  Zealand  censors 
are  now  trying  to  have  a  measure  passed  giving 
them  control  of  the  advertising  matter. 

Poland  Establishes   Censorship 

The  Associated  Press  reported  from  Warsaw 
in  May  that  national  censorship  had  been  estab- 
lished in  Poland.  Theaters  there  of  the  cheaper 
kind  have  been  showing  old-time  westerns.  It  is 
claimed  that  the  crime  wave  in  Poland  was  due, 
in  part,  at  least,  to  the  influence  of  the  pictures 
upon   young  men. 

Virginia    Censor    Board 

Governor  E.  L.  Trinkle,  of  Virginia,  appointed 
Evans  Chesterman,  Mrs.  Emma  Speed  Sampson 
and   A.    L.    T.    Monture   censors   in    March. 

The  Virginia  measure  became  effective  on  Aug. 
1st,  and  provided  for  a  tax  of  $1  a  reel  on 
originals,  and  50  cents  a  reel  for  duplicates.  The 
censors  are  each  to  draw  a  salary  of  $2,400  a  year.

ARTHUR     B.    WATERS.     PUBLIC     LEDGER, 
PHILADELPHIA 

A  number  of  what  will  undoubtedly  be  the  year's 
best  pictures  have  not  yet  been  exhibited  here.  In 
such   a   category   would  go 

When    Knighthood    Was   in    Flower, 


And  others,  including  The  Bond  Hoy  and  The 
Eternal   Flame. 

However,  if  photoplays  shown  in  this  city  to 
date,  (Oct.  5.)  I  would  say  that  the  ten  best  have 
been  : 

Toi'able   David. 

One  Glorious   Day. 

Smilin'  Through. 

Loves  of  Pharaoh. 

The  Ruling  Passion. 

Peter    Ibbetson. 

The   Golem. 

Sherlock    Holmes. 

Grandma's   Boy. 

The   Dictator. 
CARL    B.    ADAMS,     THE    CINCINNATI     EK

Monte   Cristo. 

The  Eternal  Flame. 

The  Masquerader. 

The  Queen  of   Sheba. 

Forever. 

The   Prisoner   of  Zenda. 

CINE-MUNDIAL 

This  list,  represents  our  judgment  from  the 
point   of   view   of   foreign   distribution. 

Nanook  of  the  North. 

Foolish    Wives. 

Blood   and    Sand. 

Theodora. 

Smilin'   Through. 

The   Sin    Flood.

The  Sheik. 

When    Knighthood   Was   in    Flower. 

The    Three    Must-Get-Theres. 

SHERWOOD'S     "HALL    OF    FAME" 

In  November,  Robert  E.  Sherwood,  motion 
picture  critic  of  "Life"  and  the  N.  Y.  Herald, 
while  commenting  on  the  award  of  the  Photo- 
play Magazine  Gold  Medal  "Toi'able  David"  as 
the  best  picture   of   1922,  said: 

Sometime,  perhaps,  there  will  be  a  Hall  of 
Film  Fame.  Probably  when  that  is  opened  the 
movies  will  have  progressed  so  far  beyond  their 
present  standing  that  none  of  the  pictures  which 
have  been  produced  before  now  will  deserve  a 
place  in  the  archives   of  posterity. 

It  seems  to  us,  however,  that  there  already 
have  been  pictures  with  legitimate  claims  to 
greatness.  Were  we  called  upon  the  submit  a 
list  of  nominations  to  the  Admissions  Conimittco 
at  the  Hall  of  Fame  we  should  propose  the  fol- 
lowing: 

"The   Birth   of  a   Nation." 

"Intolerance." 

"The  Coward." 

"Shoulder   Arms." 

"Broken   Blossoms." 

"The  Miracle  Man." 

"The   Mark   of   Zorro." 

"The   Kid." 

"The  Four  Horsemen  of  the  Aiiocalypse." 

"The  Three   Musketeers." 

"Toi'able  David." 

"Nanook    of   the   North." 

"Grandma's    Boy." 

"Oliver  Twist." 

"Robin    Hood." 

Aside  from  the  pictures  mentioned  in  our  list, 
there  are  a  few  that  ought  to  be  cited  as 
"almosts."  There  is,  for  instance.  "One  Glorious 
Day,"  that  delightful  fantasy  in  which  Will 
Rogers  co-starred  with  a  wandering  spirit  named 
"EK."  There  are  also  "Victory,"  from  Conrad's 
novel,  "When  Knighthood  Was  in  Flower,"  "Be- 
hind the  Door,"  "A  Connecticut  Yankee  in  King 
Arthur's  Court,"  "Humoresque,"  "Sentimental 
Tommy,"  and  any  number  of  Chaplin,  Lloyd, 
Kcaton   and    Sennett   comedies. 

We  have  studiously  avoided  mention  of  the 
German  pictures,  because  we  have  not  seen 
enough  of  them  to  make  a  comparative  list.  But 
of  those  that  we  have  seen  there  are  certainly 
four  that  deserve  to  be  placed  on  the  first  string — 
"Passion."  "Deception,"  "The  Cabinet  of  Dr. 
Caligari,"    and    "The    Loves    of    Pharaoh."

I  don't  think  this  list  should  be  called  my 
selection  of  the  "Ten  best  pictures  of  the  year." 
They  are  the  ten  pictures  that  I,  personally,  en- 
joyed most.  I  think  there  is  no  such  thing  as 
a  list   of  the   "ten   best." 


"N.  Y.  TIMES"  LISTS  GOOD  FILMS

half  of  1922,  the  "Times"  names  as  fit  for  "ex-

The  Forty  Best  Pictures  of  the  Year 

Selected  by  The  National  Board  of  Review  of  Motion  Pictures,  from  productions  reviewed 
during  period  of   December,   1921,   to  December,    1922. 

With  regard  to  the  pictures  below  listed.  Executive  Secretary  W.  D.  McGuire,  Jr., 
says: 

One  requirement  has  been  applied  to  all — that  of  achieving,  through  power  of 
appeal  or  beauty  of  treatment,  or  through  both,  the  mark  of  distinction. 

The  fact  of  a  motion  picture,  in  the  case  where  it  is  the  picturization  of  a  play,  a 
short  story,  a  poem  or  a  novel,  departing  from  or  adhering  to  the  plot  and  meaning  of 
the  original,  has  not  entered  into  the  basis  of  its  selection,  except  in  the  instance  where 
it  constitutes  a  meretricious  distortion.  Each  picture  has  been  considered  as  standing 
on  its  own  feet  of  merit  as  a  production  in  terms  of  the  motion  picture  screen. 

Pictures  have  not  been  selected  for  their  qualities  of  popular  entertainment  alone. 
The  aim  has  been  to  emphasize  the  honest  picture — that  is,  the  picture  that  is  concerned 
with  telling  its  story  and  its  ideas  in  the  sincerest  possible  manner  and  with  the 
highest  degree  of  perfection — for  it  is  recognized  in  this  connection  that  what  is  often 
the  most  popular  picture  with  the  masses  is  the  one  in  which  hokum,  over-sentimentali- 
zation  and  general  untruthfulness  play  the  greatest  parts.

levied  on  distributors  who  pass  it  to  the  exhibitor.  It  would  therefore,  place  the  total  business  of  distribu- 
tors for  that  period  at  $119,023,745.60. 

Total   rental    taxes    for    fiscal    year   ending   May    3  1,   1922,  $3,598,586.31. 

The    tax,    however,    was    repealed    Jan.     1,     1922.

All  rates  based  on  percentage  are  ad  valorem  and  as  provided  by  the  Senate  are  to  be 
based  on  foreign  valuation  of  the  commodity.  The  House  bill  provided  for  assessment 
based  on  American  valuation. 

When  the  House  passed  the  various  items  they  were  materially  diiTerent  from 
those  which  the  Senate  agreed  upon.  It  was  expected  that  there  would  be  some  diffi- 
culty in  working  the  varying  rates  out,  but  there  was  little  experienced  with  any  of  the 
items,  except  with  the  proposed  duty  on  standard  width  raw  stock.  The  House  con- 
ferees desired  to  have  this  raised  from  4/lOth  of  a  cent,  as  desired  by  the  Senate,  to 
5/lOths,  but  the  original  Senate  rate  finally  prevailed.

U.   S.  BONDED  WAREHOUSE 


If  your  office  is  in  New  York  your  films  stored  in  our  vaults 
gives  you  the  assurance  of  havmg  your  valuable  motion  picture 
negatives  and  positives  in  the  very  safest  place  m  the  world. 
Storing  with  us  also  relieves  you  of  all  the  petty  details  cf  the 
physical  handling  of  hazardous  materials  and  the  consequent  an- 
noyance of  stringent  fire  department  requirements  so  odious  to 
the  busy  executive. 

If  you  are  located  abroad  or  out  of  town  the  storage  of  your 
motion  picture  films  in  our  approved  fire-proof  vaults  at  a  nom- 
inal monthly  storage  charge  gives  you  a  service  for  which  a 
New  York  representative  would  probably  charge  you  an  amount 
equal  in  just  one  week  to  what  you  would  pay  us  in  a  whole  year. 

A  customer's  interests  are  ours.  We  accept  no  commissions 
and  pay  none.  For  handling  for  a  customer  all  of  the  details 
of  a  transaction  that  in  commissions  to  an  agent  or  a  broker 
would  cost  the  customer  hundreds  and  perhaps  thousands  of  dol- 
lars our  charge  would  be  only  a  few  dollars  for  storage,  pro- 
jection and  delivery  services. 

Our  slogan — "Nothing  too  big  for  us  to  undertake.  Nothing 
too  small  for  us  to  do  in  a  big  way." — Applies  particularly  to 
the  very  great  variety  of  services  which  we  are  constantly  ren- 
dering to  our  satisfied  customers  in  all  parts  of  the  world. 

Our  warehouse  is  bonded.  Have  your  incoming  foreign  ship- 
ments consigned  in  our  care  and  you  will  then  be  able  to  ex- 
amine them  just  around  the  corner  from  your  office.  You  will 
also  be  able  to  project  in  bond  Scimple  prints  of  foreign  subjects 
and  to  return  them  without  the  payment  of  duty.  The  use  of  our 
bonded  trucks  will  also  result  in  a  very  great  saving  to  you. 

Send  your  films  to  our  warehouse.  Write  us  a  letter  telling 
us  to  whom  to  show  them  or  just  what  to  do  with  them.  Your 
patronage  will  be  greatly  appreciated  and  your  instructions  will 
be  carried  out  in  a  manner  that  will  be  absolutely  to  your  satis- 
faction. We  will  show  your  pictures  to  any  one  or  all  of  the 
buyers  of  American  and  foreign  rights  and  will  execute  any 
kind  of  an  agreement  you  may  require.  To  all  of  these  services 
you  are  entitled  as  a  customer  of

Important  Legal  Decisions 


BY  NATHAN  BURKAN 

This    year    has    seen    some    very    interesting    legal 
decisions     affecting     the     motion     picture     industry, 
particularly    so,    with    reference    to    that    most    im- 
portant factor  of  the  industry — Copyright. 
Copyright 

The  right  of  an  assignee  of  the  motion  picture 
rights  in  a  novel  to  maintain  an  action  for  in- 
fringement came  up  in  the  case  of  Goldwyn  Pic- 
tures   Corporation   against   Howells    Sales    Co. 

It  seerns  that  the  Goldwyn's  had  bought  the 
motion  picture  rights  to  the  novel,  "Mr.  Barnes 
of  New  York,"  written  by  one  Archibald  C. 
Gunter,  in  about  1887.  Gunter  died  in  1907  and 
his  widow,  under  the  will,  became  heir  to  the 
copyright. 

The  widow  subsequently,  at  the  expiration  of  the 
original  period  of  copyright  ,  obtained  a  renewal 
of  the  copyright,  in  191S.  The  Goldwyns  claimed 
an  assignment  of  the  motion  picture  rights  of  the 
book  through  Mrs.  Gunter,  made  prior  to  the 
copyright  renewal. 

The  Goldwyns  had  not  copyrighted  any  motion 
picture  photoplay,  but  rested  their  rights  upon  the 
grant  of  the  motion  picture  rights,  and  they 
sued  the  Howells  Sales  Co.  and  others  for  an 
infringement  of  their  motion  picture  rights,  How- 
ells having  exploited  a  picture  entitled,  "The  Ven- 
detta," which  was  claimed  to  be  based  upon  the 
same   theme   and   story. 

The  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  held,  that  inas- 
much as  Goldwyn  was  merely  the  assignee  of  the 
motion  picture  rights  and  was  not  the  owner  or 
proprietor  of  copyright,  it  could  not  maintain  the 
action.  It  held  that  no  one  but  the  proprietor  of 
the  copyright  may  bring  a  suit  for  infringement. 
It  reaiifirmed  the  well-established  principle  of  law, 
that  a  licensee  of  rights  under  the  copyright  may 
not,  in  his  own  name,  bring  an  action  for  in- 
fringement, and  that  even  though  the  assignment  of 
the  motion  picture  rights  was  for  the  length  of  the 
copyright,  Goldwyn  was,  nevertheless,  nothing  but 
a   licensee. 

This  decision  is  of  far-reaching  importance,  as 
these  transfers  are  made  every  day,  and  it  would 
indicate  that  a  purchaser  of  motion  picture  rights, 
in  order  to  protect  himself,  should  insist  upon  a 
clause  in  his  contract  constituting  him  the  agent 
for  the  proprietor  of  the  copyright,  in  the  name 
of  such  proprietor,  to  maintain  suits  for  in- 
fringement. 

Of  course,  had  the  Goldwyn  company  made  its 
picture  and  registered  the  same  for  copyright,  it 
would  then  be  the  proprietor  of  a  separate  and 
distinct  copyright  in  the  motion  picture,  and  as 
such,  it  could  maintain  an  action  for  infringement 
in   its   own   name. 

The  right  of  a  photographer  to  restrain  a  motion 
picture  producer  from  issuing  photographs  which 
had  been  registered  for  copyright  by  the  photog- 
rapher, came  up  in  the  case  of  Lumiere  vs.  Robert- 
son-Cole  Distributing   Corporation. 

Carpentier,  a  pugilist,  had  made  a  contract  to 
appear  in  a  picture  for  Robertson-Cole,  and  the 
picture  was  produced  with  Carpentier  in  the  lead- 
ing role.  In  order  to  have  some  stills  for  ad- 
vertising purposes,  Carpentier  was  taken  to  the 
studio  of  Lumiere  by  the  Robertson-Cole  agent, 
and   he   there   posed   for   a    number  of   photographs. 

The  photographs  were  paid  for  by  the  Robertson- 
Cole  Company  and  it  was  undisputed  that  the 
photographs  belonged  to  that  Company. 

A  letter  was  then  presented  by  Lumiere  to  Car- 
pentier and  his  manager,  purporting  to  give  Lum- 
iere the  right  to  copyright  these  photographs,  but 
the  testimony  showed  that  neither  Carpentier  nor 
his  manager  could  speak  English,  and  they  had 
no  knowledge  of  the  contents  or  eflfect  of  that 
letter. 

The  Circuit  Court  held  that  the  usual  contract 
between  a  photographer  and  his  customers  is  one 
of  employment,  and  that  the  production  of  the 
photographs  is  one  done  for  the  customer  and  not 
for  the  photographer,  and  that  the  sitter  is  entitled 
to    all    proprietary    rights    therein,    and    that    he    is 


entitled  to  the  negative  and  of  all  photographs 
made  therefrom ;  and  the  photographer  is  not  en- 
titled to  the  copyright,  such  right  being  expressly 
reserved  to  the  sitter,  by  law. 

The  Court  held  that  where  a  photographer 
solicits  persons  to  come  to  his  studio  and  takes 
photographs  gratuitously,  for  his  benefit  and  at 
his  expense,  the  right  to  copyright  would  then  be 
in    the   photographer. 

In  this  particular  case,  inasmuch  as  Robertson- 
Cole  had  brought  Carpentier  to  the  studio  and  had 
paid  for  the  photographs,  the  right  to  copyright 
the  same  vested  in  Robertson-Cole,  and  a  decree 
was  entered  against  Lumiere  accordingly,  affirm- 
ing a   dismissal  of  his  complaint. 

Renewal    of    Copyright 

A  m.ost  interesting  decision  was  rendered  with 
reference  to  a  Fox  picture,  "Over  the  Hill  to  the 
Poorhouse."  (Fox  Film  Corporation  against 
Knowles.)  It  concerned  itself  with  the  question 
of  the  right  to  renewal  of  copyright. 

It  seems  that  the  poem,  "Over  the  Hill  to  the 
Poorhouse"  was  written  by  one  Will  Carleton,  and 
the  right  to  secure  copyright  therein  had  been 
assigned  to  Harper  &  Bros,  who  published  the 
poem  is   1873. 

In  1901,  the  same  being  within  one  year  of  the 
expiration  of  copyright,  Carleton  applied  for,  and 
obtained  a  renewal  thereof.  The  expiration  of  this 
renewal  was  in  1915.  Carleton  died  in  1912,  leaving 
one  Goodrich  as  executor  and  sole  legatee  under 
his  will,  and  in  1915,  said  Goodrich,  as  executor 
and  sole  legatee,  filed  an  application  for  renewal  of 
copyright,  so  that  the  same  was  renewed  down  to 
1929. 

Thereafter,  and  in  1915,  Goodrich  died,  leavmg 
all  of  his  property  to  his  wife  who  was  also  the 
executrix  under  his  will.  Mrs.  Goodrich,  in  1920, 
made  an  assignment  of  the  dramatic  rights  in  the 
poem   to   Fox. 

Carleton  had  left  no  widow  or  children,  or  next 
of  kin.  The  Court  held  that  the  statute  granted  no 
right  of  renewal  to  administrators  or  executors,  as 
such,  and  that  even  legatees  had  no  right  of  re- 
newal  as  thev   are   not  mentioned   in   the   statute. 

In  other  words,  Carleton  could  will  away  the 
copyright  to  Goodrich,  but  when  the  copyright 
period  expired,  Goodrich,  could  not  renew.  Had 
Carleton  left  a  wife  or  family,  they  could  have  re- 
newed. Inasmuch  as  he  left  neither,  the  copyright 
came  to  an  end  and  the  work  came  into  the  public 
domain.  . 

This  decision  is  extremely  important  and  em- 
phasizes the  futility  of  making  contracts  with  copy- 
right proprietors  for  their  renewal  rights.  It  in- 
dicates how  strongly  the  law  protects  the  widow 
and  children  of  the  copyright  proprietor,  making 
it  impossible  for  the  copyright  proprietor,  by  any 
act  of  his  own,  at  least  up  to  the  year  before  the 
expiration  of  copyright,  to  deprive  his  wife  and 
family  of  the  benefits  of  the  renewal. 

The  result  of   the  decision   is   that    Fox  has   been 
decreed   to   have   no   copyright   in   "Over   the   Hill. 
A    Writ    of    Certiorari    has    been    granted    and    the 
matter    will    be    finally    disposed    of    in    the    United 
States   Supreme  Court. 

Picture  Rights  of  Story 

A  bitter  litigation  arose  with  respect  to  James 
Oliver  Curwood's  story,  "The  Valley  of  Silent 
Men."  The  International  Film  Service  Co.,  Inc., 
had  acquired  the  motion  picture  rights  to  this  novel 
and  had  almost  finished  its  production,  when  the 
Affiliated  Distributors,  Inc.  and  a  number  of 
others,  released  a  picture  which  they  called  "I 
Am  the   Law." 

The  story  of  that  picture  was  chiefly  founded 
upon  the  confession  of  a  Northwest  _  Mounted 
Oificer,  who  believed  himself  to  be  dying,  to  a. 
crime  of  murder  which  he  did  not  commit,  in 
order  to  shield  another.  Of  course,  that  is  the 
very  crux  of  the  plot  of  "The  Valley  of  Silent 
Men,"  and  the  International  immediately  brought 
suit  for  an  injunction  against  the  Affiliated  and 
others,  claiming  infringement.

The  suit  was  bitterly  contested,  and  came  on 
before  Judge  John  C.  Knox,  of  the  Federal  Court, 
and  after  trial,  the  Court  rendered  a  decision  in 
favor  of  the  International  and  held  that  the  de- 
fendants had  infringed  the  plaintiff's  story  and 
picture ;  they  were  restrained  from  the  further  ex- 
hibition of  the  picture  and  were  compelled  to 
eliminate  the  offending  scenes  and  to  do  away 
with  the  confession  scene. 

Trade   Name  and   Unfair   Competition 

Simultaneously,  with  the  commencement  of  the 
International  suit,  James  Oliver  Curwood  brought 
an  action  against  a  number  of  the  same  defendants 
to  restrain  them  from  advertising  the  name  "James 
Oliver  Curwood"  in  conjunction  with  the  in- 
fringing picture. 

It  seems  that  Curwood,  many  years  ago,  had 
written  an  obscure  little  story  that  had  appeared 
in  an  issue  of  the  "Outing  Magazine,"  called  "The 
Poetic   Justice  of   Uko   San." 

The  Affiliated,  through  a  "dummy,"  had  acquired 
from  Curwood,  the  motion  picture  rights  to  this 
story,  together  with  the  right  to  use  his  name  in 
conjunction  therewith,  as  well  as  the  right  to  elab- 
orate on  the  story  for  the  purpose  of  making  a 
five-reel  feature  film. 

The  Affiliated  made  no  attempt  to  elaborate  on 
that  story,  but  it  advertised  its  picture,  "I  Am  the 
Law,"  as  having  been  adapted  from  a  story  writ- 
ten by  James  Oliver  Curwood.  In  other  words, 
it  not  only  infringed  upon  Curwoods's  new  novel, 
"The  Valley  of  Silent  Men,"  but  it  advertised 
Curwood's  name  as  the  autfior  of  the  infringing 
work. 

This  action  was  likewise  tried  before  Judge  Knox, 
and  judgment  rendered  in  favor  of  Curwood,  re- 
straining the  defendants  from  the  further  use  of  his 
name.  In  both  of  these  actions  a  Special  Master 
has  been  appointed  to  assess  the  damages  to 
which   the  plaintiffs  are   entitled. 

These  two  decisions  illustrate  the  liberal  tendency 
of  the  Courts  in  protecting  the  owner  of  a  work 
which  has  been  infringed  and  in  safeguarding  an 
author  against   the  improper  use  of  his  name. 

In  Binderup  vs  Pathe  Exchange,  the  Federal 
Courts  construed  the  nature  of  the  film  business 
with  respect  to  the  Sherman  Anti-Trust  Law.  In 
that  case,  an  action  had  been  brought  for  three- 
fold damages  under  the  Sherman  Anti-Trust  Law 
against  the  Pathe  and  others,  for  damages  on  the 
ground  that  the  Pathe  and  others  had  conspired 
to  ruin  the  plaintiff's  motion  picture  business, 
by  refusing  to  supply  him  with  motion  picture 
films. 

The  plaintiff  alleged  that  he  was  the  owner  of 
a  number  of  motion  picture  theaters  in  Nebraska, 
comprising  the  Binderup  Circuit,  but  his  business 
was  so  large  and  profitable  that  Pathe  determined 
to  obtain  a  share  of  it,  and  on  his  refusal  to  part 
with  any  interest  herein,  Pathe  organized  a  Film 
Board  of  Trade.  That  thereby,  Pathe  was  enabled 
to  and  did  bring  great  pressure  to  bear  on  the 
various  members  of  the  Film  Board  of  Trade,  with 
the  result  that  the  plaintiff  was  unable  to  procure 
films  for  his  Circuit ;  that  he  was  placed  upon 
a  blacklist,  that  all  unexpired  contracts  for  films 
were  cancelled;  and  that  he  suffered  great  dam- 
age 

The  Circuit  Court  held  that  the  Sherman  Anti- 
Trust  Act  involved  Interstate  Commerce  only ; 
that  the  shipment  of  programs,  films  or  adver- 
tising matter  in  connection  with  films,  had  been 
made  by  the  home  office  of  the  Pathe  to  its  Omaha, 
Nebraska  office,  and  that  any  shipment  that 
would  be  made  thereafter  to  Binderup  would  be  in 
the  State  of  Nebraska,  and  would,  therefore,  not  be 
Interstate  Commerce,  for  once  it  was  shipped  to 
Nebraska,  it  became  subject  to  the  local  tax 
jurisdiction  of  that  State;  that  inasmuch  as  the 
plaintiff  had  dealt  with  the  Omaha,  Nebraska 
exchange  office  of  the  Pathe,  sh  pments  of  programs 
film  and  advertising  matter  from  such  Omaha, 
Nebraska  office  to  his  various  Nebraska  theaters 
were  not  Interstate  shipmen's.  but  were  shipments 
within  the  State  of  Nebraska  ;  and  the  Court  threw 
out  his  complaint  on  that  ground.  The  Court 
intimated,  however,  that  there  might  have  been 
a  different  result  had  the  plaintiff  obtained  his 
pictures  direct  from  New   York   City. 


There  was  a  very  elaborate  dissenting  opinion  by 
Judge  Sanborn,  in  which  he  held  in  effect,  that 
even  though  the  shipments  had  been  made  by  the 
Pathe  from  its  home  office  to  its  exchange  in 
Omaha,  nevertheless,  the  entire  transaction  evi- 
denced a  transaction  between  the  home  office  and 
the  plaintiff,  rather  than  between  the  branch  office 
and  the  plaintiff.  In  other  words.  Judge  Sanborn 
held  that  the  shipments  of  the  films  by  the  Pathe 
to  its  local  exchange  in  Omaha  were  Interstate 
Commerce. 

Title    Rights 

A  decision  of  vast  importance  was  Underbill 
against  Schenck,  concerning  a  play  under  the 
title,    "The   Passion   Flower." 

It  seems  that  in  1914,  one  Beneventa,  a  Spanish 
playwright,  wrote  a  play  called  "La  Malquerida," 
which  was  a  great  success  upon  the  stage  in  Spain. 
He  later  obtained  copyright  upon  the  Spanish  ver- 
sion in  the  United  States,  in  1914,  and  in  1916,  he 
granted  to  Underbill,  the  right  to  translate  and 
adapt  the  play  to  English,  and  to  perform  it  in 
that  language.  Plaintiff  made  an  American  version 
in  1917  which  was  copyrighted  in  that  year  as  a 
published  work,  and  gave  to  it  the  title,  "The 
Passion  Flower,"  that  title  be  ng  an  arbitrary  one 
and   not   a   translation  of   the   Spanish    title. 

In  1920,  Underbill  granted  to  one  Herndon,  the 
exclusive  right  to  produce  Underhill's  translation, 
in  the  United  States  and  Canada,  upon  the  pay- 
ment of  royalties,  and  the  play  was  produced  in 
1920,  under  the  title,   "The  Passion  Flower." 

Thereafter,  Herndon  attempted  to  obtati  from 
the  plaintiff,  the  world  motion  picture  rights 
in  the  play,  subject  to  the  consent  of  the  author, 
and  when  Underbill  wrote  to  Beneventa  for  his 
consent,  the  latter  replied  that  he  had  already 
sold   the   world   motion   picture   rights. 

Thereupon,  Herndon  negotiated  with  Beneventa's 
American  representative,  and  from  him  obtained 
an  assignment  of  Beneventa's  exclusive  motion 
picture  grant   in   the  original  play. 

Herndon  then  sold  his  motion  picture  rights  to 
Joseph  M.  Schenck,  under  an  agreement  in  which 
he  granted  not  only  the  rights  in  the  Spanish  play, 
but  also  the  rights  in  the  English  translation  made 
by  Underbill.  Underbill  refused  to  consent  to 
the  arrangement  and  brought  an  action  for  an 
injunction.  Trial  was  had  and  he  was  successful. 
The  injunction  was  granted,  together  with  an 
accounting   of   profits   ordered. 

The  theory  upon  which  the  injunction  was 
granted,  was  that  Schenck  was  comipeting  un- 
fairly with  Underbill  in  the  use  of  the  title,  "The 
Passion  Flower."  The  Court  held  that  the  original 
author,  Beneventa,  after  his  grant  to  Underbill  of 
the  right  to  translate  and  produce  the  play  on 
the  stage,  could  not  use  the  play  in  motion  pictures, 
or  grant  the  right  to  use  it  to  others,  in  competi- 
tion with  the  spoken  drama. 

In  other  words,  he  could  not  destroy  or  impair 
a  right  which  he  had  granted  to  another  for  a 
valuable  consideration,  not  only  insofar  as  the 
copyright  was  concerned,  although  the  Court  re- 
frained from  going  into  the  copyright,  as  such  ;  but, 
insofar  as  the  plaintiff's  exclusive  right  to  the  use 
of  the  title  was  concerned.  It  held  that  the  acts  of 
Herndon  and  Schenck  constituted  a  constructive 
fraud  upon  Underbill. 

Censorship 

The  activities  of  the  motion  picture  censors 
received  a  decided  check  in  a  proceeding  brought 
against    the    Famous    Players-Lasky    Corporation. 

That  corporation  was  about  to  release  a  picture 
called  "The  Truthful  Liar,"  and  had  made  its 
application  to  the  censors.  A  day  or  two  prior 
to  the  issuance  of  the  license,  the  censors  directed 
the  deletion  of  a  few  unimportant  scenes  and 
titles. 

Through  a  mistake  on  the  part  of  a  clerk  in  the 
shipping  room  of  the  Famous,  however,  a  copy  of 
a  print  of  the  picture  was  sent  to  one  of  the 
Loew 's  theaters  for  exhibition  and  was  so  exhibited. 
The  censors  claimed  that  inasmuch  as  the  picture 
had  been  exhibited  without  the  issuance  of  a 
license,  and  inasmuch  as  the  changes  had  not  been 
made  in  the  picture  in  compliance  with  the  direc- 
tion ol  the  censors,  there  had  been  a  technical 
violation   of   the   law,   and   they   filed   an   information 


11 


3M 


against  the  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corporation 
and  the  matter  was  set  down  for  trial  before  the 
three  judges  of  the  Court  of  Special  Sessions, 
where  misdemeanors  are  usually   tried. 

The  Famous,  however,  made  a  motion  before  the 
judge  sitting  at  General  Sessions,  to  have  the 
matter  taken  away  from  the  Special  Sessions,  on 
the  ground  that  the  pecuniary  loss  to  the  Famous 
would  be  too  severe  in  the  case  of  conviction. 

It  seems  that  the  Censorship  Law  provides  that, 
upon  a  conviction  for  a  violation  of  the  act,  the 
license  is  automatically  cancelled,  so  that  the  pic- 
ture may  not  thereafter  be  exhibited  in  this  State, 
thereby  shutting  oflf  a  very  substantial  source  of 
revenue  to  the  producer. 

The  Famous  claimed  that  a  penalty  which  would 
incur  the  loss  of  about  $70,000.00  was  grave  and 
serious  enough  to  be  tried  by  a  jury  of  twelve 
men,  and  not  by  a  court  sitting  without  a  jury. 
It  also  claimed  that  no  corporation  may  be  fined 
more  than  $5,000  even  for  a  felony,  and  that  a 
conviction  herein  would  actually  result  in  a  fine 
of  about  $70,000. 

Judge  Johnstone  heard  the  motion,  and  after 
carefully  considering  it,  decided  that  the  contention 
of  the  Famous  was  correct,  and  he  made  an 
order  taking  the  case  away  from  the  Special 
Sessions  and  sending  it  to  the  Grand  Jury  for 
indictment.  The  Grand  Jury,  however,  refused  to 
indict. 

This  decision  ought  to  have  a  far-reaching  eflfect. 
It  will  undoubtedly  discourage  the  censors  from 
bringing  criminal  proceedings  against  the  motion 
picture  producers  for  every  absurd  and  technical 
violation. 

It  also  indicates  the  intention  on  the  part  of 
the  Courts  to  try  out  in  the  court  room,  before 
a  jury,  the  question  of  the  right  of  the 
censors  to  demand  changes  in  pictures.  That 
question  has  not  yet  squarely  come  up  in  this 
case.  It  would  have  come  up  undoubtedly,  had 
there  been  an  indictment  and  trial.  It  remains  to 
be  seen  whether  the  censors  have  the  undisputed 
power  which  they  claim  to  have,  or  whether  there 
is  not  some  limitation  upon  their  right  to  slash 
indiscriminately  at  whim  and  caprice,  productions 
on  which  hundreds  of  thousands  of  dollars  have 
been    spent. 

Injunctions     Against     Employment 

The  case  of  Rodolf  Valentino  illustrates  the  value 
of  a  contract  made  between  an  employer  and  an 
employe  who  has,  by  his  unique  qualities,  made 
himself  invaluable. 

Valentino  had  signed  a  contract  with  the  Fa- 
mous Players-Lasky  Corporation  for  a  number  of 
years.  Shortly  thereafter,  his  pictures  commenced 
to  take  with  the  public  and  in  "Blood  and  Sand," 
Valentino  achieved  a  measure  of  success  seldom 
accorded  to  an  actor.  He  thereupon  commenced 
to  express  dissatisfaction  with  the  terms  of  his 
contract  and  made  it  known  to  the  Famous  that  he 
would  not  go  on  with  his  next  picture.  He  claimed 
that  the  Famous  was  not  treating  him  well ;  that  it 
had  not  provided  him  with  the  necessary  material 
and  facilities  for  the  proper  taking  of  pictures  ;  that 
he  was  under  a  handicap,  and  that  it  had  therefore 
breached  its  contract  with  him,  and  he  was  free 
to  seek  employment  with  others. 

The  Famous  commenced  an  action  to  enjoin 
Valentino  from  rendering  his  services  to  anyone 
other  than  the  Famous,  during  the  term  of  the 
contract.  The  matter  came  on  before  Judge  Was- 
servogel  of  the  Supreme  Court,  New  York  County, 
and  he  decided  that  the  Famous  was  right  in  its 
contention  that  it  had  not  breached  its  contract, 
and  that  Valentino  must  refrain  from  rendering  his 
services   to  anyone  else  during  the  contract  period. 

The  principle  of  law  upon  which  this  case  was 
decided  is  well  established.  It  practically  compels 
a  man  to  render  his  services  to  an  employer,  even 
though  the  employe,  during  the  contract  period, 
achieves  great  renown  and  distinction.  In  fact, 
the  abler  he  becomes  and  the  more  famous  and 
sought-after,  the  more  readily  will  the  injunction  be 
granted. 

The  law  does  not  directly  compel  the  employe 
to  render  his  services  to  such  employer,  but  it 
accomplishes  that  object  by  preventing  him  from 
rendering  his  services  to  others. 


Co-Authorized 

The  line  of  demarcation  between  an  employment 
contract  and  one  of  collaboration  and  co-authorship 
is  not  an  easy  one  to  draw. 

Elmer  Harris  was  the  author  of  a  play  entitled, 
"Your  Neighbor's  Wife."  Harris  and  iMorosco 
conceived  the  idea  of  converting  this  play  into  a 
musical  comedy,  and  they  engaged  Earl  Carroll  to 
write  the  music  and  lyrics.  Carroll  did  so,  and  the 
play  was  produced  as  a  mus'cal  comedy,  under 
the  title,  "So  Long  Letty,"  Carroll,  receiving  a 
proportion  of  the  proceeds  of  the  sale  of  the 
Australian  rights,  and  a  proportion  of  the  pro- 
ceeds  from   stock. 

Morosco  and  Harris  sold  the  motion  picture 
rights  to  "So  Long  Letty,"  for  $20,000  but  they 
ignored  Carroll  in  the  transaction,  and  Carroll 
brought  suit  to  have  the  Court  determine  his 
rights  as  a  co-author  and  to  recover  his  share 
of  the  proceeds  of   the  motion   picture  rights. 

^Torosco  claimed,  however,  that  Carroll  was  not 
co-author  in  the  production,  that  he  was  a  mere 
employe,  delegated  to  write  music  and  lyrics,  and 
that   he  had   no  interest  in   the  production   as  such. 

Carroll  raised  the  point  that  by  making  changes 
in  the  book  and  in  the  dialogue,  adding  lyrics  and 
writing  the  music,  he  had  become  a  co-author  in 
the  work. 

After  a  lengthy  trial.  Judge  Augustus  Hand  of 
the  District  Court,  decided  in  favor  of  iMorosco  and 
Harris,  holding  that  Carroll  was  not  an  author 
or  collaborator,  and  he  dismissed  the  complaint. 

The  case  has  gone  up  on  appeal  to  the  Circuit 
Court.  The  question  remains  to  be  decided 
whether  Carroll,  by  his  contribution  to  the  work,  is 
to  be  regarded  as  a  co-author  or  a  mere  employe. 
It  is  a  very  interesting  question  and  will  have  an 
important    bearing    on    the    rights    of    authors    gen- 

^^^  ^'  Contract    With    An    Infant 

Mary  Miles  Minter  and  her  mother,  brought  an 
action  against  the  American  Film  Co.  for  salary 
dre   for  services  rendered. 

At  the  time  that  the  contract  was  made.  Miss 
Minter  was  an  infant.  Before  the  expiration  of 
the  contract  period,  she  ceased  work  and  dis- 
affirmed the  contract,  on  the  ground  of  her 
minority. 

The  action  was  brought  to  recover  vario.us 
amounts  that  had  been  deducted  by  the  Film 
Company  by  reason  of  Miss  Minter's  absence  from 
the  stud'o  on  a  number  of  occasions.  The  Com- 
pany a'so  attempted  to  recover  damages  against 
Miss  Minter,  on  the  ground  that  she  had  dis- 
affirmed the  contract  and  had  failed  to  render  her 
services. 

The  Court  held  that  a  minor,  having  the  right 
to  avoid  her  contract,  is  not  liable  for  damages 
for  her  failure  to  complete  the  same,  and  it  dis- 
missed  the    Company's   contention. 

Damages  for  Failure  to   Deliver  Film 

A  very  interesting  decision  came  down  in 
the  Court  of  Appeals  of  the  District  of  Columbia, 
in  an  action  brought  by  one  iMiller  against  the 
Pathe    Exchange,    Inc. 

It  appeared  that  Miller,  who  owned  a  motion 
picture  theater  in  Annapolis,  Maryland,  had 
made  a  contract  on  December  19,  1918,  for  a 
picture,  "Infatuation."  to  be  shown  at  his  theater 
on  January  1st  following.  The  contract  con- 
tained a  provision  as  follows  : 

"That  the  d'stributor  (Pathe)  shall  not  be 
liable  for  any  loss  or  damage  resulting  to  the 
exhibitor  (Miller)  by  reason  of  failure  or  delay 
in  delivering  the  films  or  advertising  matter, 
herein  referred  to,  when  such  failure  or  delay_  is 
due  to  any  »  »  •  failure  of  films  or  advertising 
matter  in  the  custody  or  control  of  any  other 
party  to  be  delivered  or  returned  to  the  distributor 
in  time  for  delivery  hereunder,  or  to  be  refor- 
warded  as  per  distributor's  instructions,  or  to 
strikes,  lockouts,  fire,  floods,  or  to  any  other 
cause  or  causes  whatsoever  beyond  the  control 
of   the  distributor." 

On  December  .^Ist,  at  8  P.  M.,  the  defendant 
informed  Miller  that  it  could  not  let  him  have 
the  film  for  the  followng  day.  Miller  brought 
suit  and  recovered  a  judgment  against  the  Pathe, 
and  the   Court  of  Appeals  affirmed  the  judgment, 


367 


Pathe's  defense  was  that  another  owner  of  a 
motion  picture  theater  in  Baltimore,  Maryland 
had  leased  "Infatuation"  for  the  29,  30  and  31 
days  of  December,  under  a  contract  whereby  that 
owner  had  the  privilege  of  extending  the  run 
of  the  picture  for  three  additional  days.  Pathe 
was  therefore  unable  to  obtain  that  print  for 
the  plaintifif's  use. 

The  only  other  print  that  it  had  in  the  ter- 
ritory had  been  used  in  Washington,  and  on 
the  26th  of  December,  had  become  so  worn  out 
that  it  had  to  be  sent  to  the  workshop. 

The  Court  held  that  the  clause  in  the  contract 
hereinabove  quoted,  did  not  relieve  the  Pathe 
from  liability ;  that  Pathe  had  not  used  reasonable 
diligence  to  get  another  print  for  the  plaintiff; 
and  that  from  the  facts  above  stated,  it  did  not 
appear  that  the  failure  to  deliver  the  prints  was 
due   to   a   cause   beyond    Pathe's   control. 

BY  ARTHUR  BUTLER  GRAHAM 

A  decision  of  some  interest  was  rendered  by 
Justice  Lehman  at  Special  Term,  reported  in  the 
Law  Journal  of  March  20,   1922. 

The  opinion  is  so  clear  as  to  need  little  elab- 
oration, but  to  review  the  facts  briefly :  Earl 
Carroll  claimed  to  have  written  the  scenario  of 
the  motion  picture  "Twelve  Ten,"  which  was  later 
produced  at  the  Capitol  Theater  in  New  York 
City.  Carroll  claimed  that  he  delivered  the  sce- 
nario to  Herbert  Brenon  with  the  understanding 
that  Brenon  would  examine  the  same  and  if  he 
could  use  it,  he  and  Carroll  would  get  together 
and  agree  upon  the  price  to  be  paid  therefor. 
Carroll  then  claimed  that  Brenon  went  to  England 
with  the  scenario  and  without  Carroll's  authority 
caused  a  picture  to  be  made  by  the  British  & 
Colonial  Kinematograph  Co.,  Ltd.,  of  London, 
which  picture  was  directed  by  Brenon  and  in 
which    Marie    Doro    was    the    star. 

The  trial  lasted  about  three  days  and  consid- 
erable testimony  was  taken,  in  which  there  was 
some  conflict  as  to  the  nature  of  the  transaction 
between  Brenon  and  Carroll.  It  was  undisputed, 
however,  that  Carroll  knew  nearly  a  year  before 
the  picture  was  first  shown  that  Brenon  had  made 
the  picture,  claiming  the  right  to  do  so.  This  fact 
was  brought  to  Carroll's  attention  by  virtue  of 
an  advertisement  in  Variety.  Carroll  took  no  ac- 
tion with  respect  thereto,  except  the  making  of 
certain  inquiries  from  Nathan  Burkan,  whose  name 
appeared  upon  the  aforesaid  advertisement  as 
Brenon's  American  representative.  The  nature  of 
the  inquiry  was  as  to  whether  Brenon  had  dis- 
posed of  the  picture  and  upon  Burkan's  statement 
that  he  had  not  disposed  of  it,  Carroll  simply  said 
he  had  written  the  scenario  and  that  Brenon  had 
not   paid   him   for   it. 

The  Court  found  that  Carroll  did  not  at  that 
time  make  any  statement  to  Burkan  which  would 
indicate  that  Brenon  did  not  have  rights  in  the 
scenario. 

On  all  the  facts,  the  Court  found  that  Carroll 
had  authorized  Brenon  to  dispose  of  his  rights  and 
it,  therefore,  followed  that  the  title  of  the  British 
&  Colonial  Kinematograph  Co.,  Ltd.,  was  good, 
and  the  injunction  and  accounting  prayed  for  were 
denied  as  against  the  defendants,  except  Herbert 
Brenon. 

Herbert  Brenon  admitted  that  he  had  not  paid 
Carroll  for  the  scenario  and  tendered  $500,  which 
he  claimed  was  the  agreed  price.  The  Court, 
however,  directed  an  accounting  of  the  profits  ob- 
tained by  Brenon  and  dismissed  the  complaint  as 
against   the  other  defendants. 

BY     HOUSE,    GROSSMAN    &    VORHAUS 

Several  cases  interesting  to  the  theatrical  pro- 
fession have  been  decided  in  the  year  1922.  Of  un- 
usual interest  is  the  case  of  Ear!  Carroll  vs.  Herbert 
Brennon  and  others,  now  pending  in  the  Appellate 
Division  of  the  Supreme  Court  for  the  First 
Department. 

Carroll  was  the  author  and  writer  of  a  scenario 
known  as  "12:10"  and  delivered  the  same  to 
Herbert  Brennon  for  reading.  The  latter  departed 
for  England  taking  the  Carroll  scenario  with  him 
and   there  sold  the  same  to   distributors. 

An  action  in  the  Supreme  Court  was  com- 
menced   and    Judge    Lehman    decided    that    Carroll 


could  recover  only  that  which  Brennon  had  re- 
ceived for  the  sale,  but  could  not  receive  an 
accounting  of  the  great  profits  made  by  others 
who  derived  their  interests  through  Brennon.  This 
case   is   now   pending   in   the  Appellate   Division. 

A  unique  and  important  case  was  brought  by 
Horace  Goldin,  an  eminent  magician,  who  created 
an  illusion  designated  "Sawing  a  Lady  in  Two." 
His  act  was  performed  in  vaudeville  and  was 
tremendously  successful.  He  placed  a  woman  in 
a  coffin-shaped  box  and  severed  the  box  with  a  huge 
saw,  apparently  cuttmg  the  woman  in  two.  His 
illusion  was  infringed  upon,  and  motion  picture 
producers  produced  the  motion  picture,  disclosing 
the  secret.  Goldin  commenced  action  in  the 
Supreme  Court,  New  York  County,  and  the 
Appellate  Division  caused  an  injunction  to  be 
issued  restraining  the  distribution  and  exploitation 
of  this  illusion. 

It  is  interesting  to  compare  the  case  of  Shubert 
Theatrical  Company  vs.  Gallagher  &  Shean  with 
the  case  of  Shubert  vs.  Rath  Bros.,  decided  about 
a  year  ago,  a  report  of  which  was  published  in 
Wid's  year  book.  In  the  Rath  case  two  acrobats 
of  extraordinary  skill  and  ability,  although  not 
nearly  so  well  known  as  Gallagher  &  Shean,  were 
enjoined  by  the  Supreme  Court  from  breaking 
their  contract  with  the  Shuberts  and  performing 
elsewhere,  the  Court  holding  in  effect,  that  Rath 
Bros,  were  theatrical  stars  of  the  first  magnitude, 
and  that  their  negative  covenant  not  to  work  for 
someone  else  would  be  enforced.  A  year  later 
the  Appellate  Division  was  asked  to  enjoin  Messrs. 
Gallagher  &  Shean  from  performing  elsewhere. 
The  Appellate   Division   said : 

"At  the  time  the  contract  was  made  (May  18th, 
1921),  as  a  vaudeville  team  they  were  practically 
new.  Whatever  success  they  have  subsequently 
obtained  would  be  due  more  to  the  clever  and 
tuneful  songs  that  they  purchased  after  they 
entered  into  the  contract.  The  most  that  can  be 
said  of  them  is  that  they  were  pleasing  and  suc- 
cessful artists  and  commanded  fair  salaries,  but  I 
am  not  satisfied  that  they  possess  any  such  special 
merit  or  reputation  or  that  their  talents  were  un- 
usual in  any  such  degree  as  to  make  their  loss  a 
matter  of  serious  consequence   to   the  plaintiff." 

Of  irnportance  to  all  producers  of  shows  but 
not  motion  pictures,  was  the  proceeding  instituted 
by  Mr.  A.  M,  Woods,  against  Commissioner  Gil- 
christ, the  Commissioner  of  Licenses  of  the  City  of 
New  York,  who  had  threatened  to  withdraw  the 
theatrical  license  of  the  Eltinge  Theater  on  account 
of  the  production  of  the  play  entitled  "Demi- 
Virgin"  which  was  at  that  time  being  played 
there.  These  proceedings  were  carried  to  the 
Court  of  Appeals  which  ruled  that  the  Licensed 
Commissioner  of  the  City  of  New  York  had  ex- 
ceeded his  authority,  and  permitted  the  continuance 
of  the  play.

Secretary   and    Counsel,    Pathe    Exchange,    Inc. 

There  have  been  several  important  legal  deci- 
sions during  the  past  year,  notably  the  decision 
in  the  Binderup  case  vs.  the  Omaha  Film  Board 
of  Trade,  et  al. ;  the  decision  in  Nebraska  under 
the  statute  requiring  deposits  and  advances  on 
film  contracts  to  be  held  in  trust ;  the  decision  of 
the  New  York  Appellate  Division  on  the  question 
of  censorship  of  news  reels,  but  in  my  opinion  the 
most  important  decision  of  the  year  as  affecting 
distributors  of  motion  pictures  was  that  rendered 
in  the  case  of  Lumiere  vs.  Pathe.  This  is  a  case 
that  every  distributor  of  pictures  should  study, 
because  until  overruled  by  a  higher  court  it  will 
stand  as  a  precedent  and  a  very  dangerous  one  in 
any  case  where  an  unscrupulous  photographer 
may  seek  to  subvert  the  copyright  law  for  pur- 
poses  of   personal   gain. 

A  Polish  Jew  named  Kaufman  came  to  this 
country  a  few  years  ago  and  adopted  the  name 
of  the  famous  French  inventor  and  photographer, 
Lumiere.  Kaufman,  or  Lumiere,  as  he  is  now 
known,  was  employed  by  Dolores  Cassinelli  to  take 
photographs  of  herself  to  be  used  in  a  publicity 
campaign.  Without  Miss  Cassinelli's  knowledge 
or  consent  Lumiere  placed  the  copyright  symbol 
and  his  name  on  each  of  the  photographs  and  as 
soon    as    the    pictures    were    reproduced    in    news- 


368 


papers   and   magazines   in   the   course   of   Miss   Cas- 
snelh's     advertising     campaign,     Lumiere     brought 
suit  again  every  one  who  had  reproduced  them. 
Some   important   features   of   the  case  are : 

1.  That  Miss  Cassinelli  purchased  the  photo- 
graphs and   paid   for   them. 

2.  She  did  not  authorize  Lumiere  to  copyright 
them ;  in  fact,  did  not  know  anything  about  copy- 
right. 

3.  The  pictures  were  reproduced  for  the  first 
time  about  a  year  after  they  were  taken. 

4.  None  of  the  photographs  were  ever  filed  in 
the  office  of  the  Registrar  of  Copyright,  nor  was 
application  for  registration  made  until  some  eigh- 
teen months   after   the   pictures   were  taken. 

Despite  these  facts,  Lumiere  recovered  a  judg- 
ment against  Pathe  for  $2,500,  and  secured  settle- 
ments from  other  defendants  for  various  sums  of 
money. 

The  case  is  important  because  it  virtually  holds 
that  the  mere  placing  of  the  copyright  symbol  on 
a  photograph  is  sufficient  to  give  the  claimant  of 
copyright  the  full  protection  afforded  by  the  copy- 
right law  even  though  the  thing  in  which  copy- 
right is  claimed  never  be  filed  in  the  copyright 
ofifice  and  no  application  for  copyright  registration 
be  made.  And  further,  that  the  reproduction  of  a 
copyrighted  photograph  with  additional  coloring, 
changes  in  background,  etc.,  such  as  are  customa- 
rily made  in  advertising  announcements  in  the 
moving  picture  business,  may  be  made  the  basis 
of  a  suit  for  damages  even  though  the  reproduc- 
tion of  the  photograph  be  authorized  by  the  copy- 
right proprietor  and  due  credit  be  given  to  the 
photographer,  on  the  ground  that  any  such  repro- 
duction would  not  be  a  true  representation  of  the 
photographers   worth. 

Distributors  should  therefore  refuse  to  use  for 
any  advertising  purpose  any  photographs  on  which 
the  copyright  symbol  appears  and  they  should  be 
constantly  on  the  alert  for  any  unauthorized  claim 
of  copyright  being  made  by  photographers  em- 
ployed  by   them    or   their   stars. 

Motion  picture  stars  generally  do  not  under- 
stand that  in  the  absence  of  agreement  whereby 
the  copyright  in  photographs  is  assigned  by  the 
sitter  to  the  photographer  the  copyright  is  the 
property  of  the  sitter. 

Some  photographers  take  advantage  of  this  lack 
of  knowledge  and  place  the  copyright  symbol  which 
consists  of  the  letter  "C"  in  a  circle — thus  © 
— on  all  photographs  and  then  exact  payments  of 
money  from  such  stars  before  consenting  to  the 
use  by  such  stars  of  their  own  photographs  or 
else  sue  for  infringement  of  copyright  after  such 
photographs  have  been  used  for  publicity  pur- 
poses. 

Stars  should  examine  all  photos  and  if  the  copy- 
right symbol  appears  on  them,  all  such  photos 
should  be  refused.

Binderup  vs.    Pathe   Exchange,    Inc.,   and  others 

The  decision  of  the  United  States  District  Court 
in  favor  of  the  defendants  was  affirmed  by  the 
United  States  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  for  the 
Eighth  District,  and  the  .Supreme  Court  of  the

General  of  the  State  of  Nebraska  and  Others 
Three  judges  of  the  United  States  Circuit  Court 
of  Appeals  and  the  United  States  District  Court 
granted  an  injunction  pendente  lite  against  the

People  of  the  State  of   New  York  vs.   Realart 
Pictures  Corp. 

The  defendant  was  charged  with  violating  the 
New  York  Censorship  Law  and  was  held  by  a 
magistrate  for  trial  in  the  Court  of  Special  Ses- 
sions in  the  City  of  New  York,  where  the  trial 
would  be  without  a  jury.  Judge  Johnstone  _  of 
the  Court  of  General  Sessions  granted  a  motion 
to   remove   the    case   to    the    Court    of    General    Ses- 


sions, where  it  must  be  heard  upou  indictment  and 
by  a  jury  on  the  ground  that  the  matter  was  of 
sufficient  importance  to  the  defendant  to  have  a 
jury  trial  of  tb.e  contested  issues.  Judge  John- 
stone's opinion  is  reported  in  the  New  York  Law 
Journal  of  August  25,    1922. 

Famous  Players-Lasky  Corp.  vs.  Rodolph 
Valentino 
The  Supreme  Court  in  New  York,  at  Special 
Term,  granted  a  preliminary  injunction  restrain- 
ing the  defendant  from  entering  the  employ  of  any- 
one but  the  plaintiff  or  from  doing  anything  else 
inconsistent  with  his  exclusive  employment  by  the 
plaintiff  pending  the  decision  of  the  case  on  the 
merits   after   a   trial. 

Serra    and    Others   vs.    Famous    Lasky   Film    Serv- 
ice,   Ltd. 

Decided  January  28,  1922,  in  the  Court  oi  Ap- 
peals of  the  Supreme  Court  of  Judicature  in  Eng- 
land. The  case  involved  the  right  of  the  defend- 
ant to  distribute  motion  pictures  of  certain  of  the 
Sardou  plays,  including  "La  Tosca."  The  Court 
of  Appeals  affirmed  the  decision  of  the  Chancery 
Court  in   favor  of  the  defendant. 

The  case  turned  upon  the  question  of  whether 
under  the  original  agreement  between  Mr.  Sar- 
dou and  the  defendant's  predecessor  in  title,  Mr. 
Sardou  had  granted  the  motion  picture  rights  as 
well  as  the  statge  rights.  The  original  agree- 
ment vv-as  prior  to  the  time  when  motion  pictures 
were  known.  The  contract  from  Sardou  granted 
"the  exclusive  right  of  production  in  Great  Britain 
and  her  colonies  and  in  the  United  States  of  Amer- 
ica of  the  three  first  theatrical  pieces  which  he 
may  write,  dating  from  this  date,  comedies  or 
dramas  in  four  or  five  acts.  These  pieces  the 
grantee  will  alone  be  entitled  to  produce  either  in 
the  English  or  French  languages,  throughout  Great 
Britain  and  her  colonies  and  the  United  States  of 
America."  It  was  found  by  the  court  that  the 
contract  was  a  French  contract  and  accordingly 
to  be  construed  by  the  principles  of  the  French 
law.  that  the  grant  included  the  grant  of  the  then 
unknown   and   unthought   of  motion   picture   rights. 

A  further  point  in  the  English  case  was  whether 
the  territory  for  which  the  rights  were  granted 
included  Ireland,  and  the  court  held  that  the  ex- 
pression "Great  Brita'n  and  her  colonies"  in  the 
French  contract  was  meant  to  include  Ireland.

Tt  is  of  interest  to  note  that  during  the  vear 
1922,  the  United  States  of  Brazil,  the  Kingdom 
of  Hungary,  and  the  Free  City  of  Dantzig  be- 
came members  of  the  so-called  International  Copy- 
right Union,  adhering  to  the  Berne  Convention. 
Also,  that  in  May  and  June  of  this  year,  the 
President  of  the  United  States  issued  proclama- 
tions pursuant  to  the  United  States  Copyright  Act 
of  March  4,  1909,  as  amended  by  Act  of  Decem- 
ber 18,  1919,  announcing  that  citizens  or  subjects 
of  Austria,  Germany,  Italy  and  New  Zealand  wer< 
entitled  to  the  protection  of  the  United  States 
Copyright  Laws  by  virtue  of  the  reciprocal  pro- 
tection offered  to  citizens  of  the  United  States 
by   the  countries   named. 

BY   WILLIAM    M.   SEABURY 

In  the  Year  Book  of  1921  the  case  of  Binderup 
vs.  Omaha  Film  Board  of  Trade  and  practically 
all  the  national  distributors  having  branch  offices 
in   that   city,    was   reviewed. 

In  March,  1922,  however,  the  decision  of  the 
trial  court  was  affirmed  by  the  United  States 
Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  in  the  Eighth  Circuit, 
sitting  at  St.  Louis.  This  decision,  therefore, 
requires    notice. 

The  plaintiff  was  an  exhibitor  in  Nebraska,  who 
owned   and   operated   several   theaters   in   that   state. 

Prior  to  the  commencement  of  suit  in  1920,  the 
plaintiff  claimed  to  have  contracts  with  several 
of  the  distributors  which  authorized  him  to  supply 
about  twenty  other  theaters  which  the  plaintiff 
did  not  own  and  did  not  operate,  with  programs 
of  pictures.  There  was  a  controversy  between 
the  plaintiff  and  the  Omaha  Film  Board  of  Trade 
and  some  of  its  members,  in  which  it  was  charged 
that  the  plaintiff  had  sublet  certain  pictures  of 
the  defendants  to  his  so-called  circuit  without 
authority.      The  defendants   refused   to   deliver  pic- 


369 


lures  to  the  plaintiff  for  purposes  of  sul)-rental 
by  hull  to  other  exhibitors,  and  the  defendant 
iiotThed  memljcrs  of  his  circuit  that  thereafter 
their  pictures  could  only  be  obtained  through 
them.  As  a  result  of  this  the  plaintiff  claimed 
he  had  been  ruined  and  driven  out  of  business, 
and  he  brought  suit  in  the  Federal  Court  in 
Op-a'a.  seeking  to  recover  $750,000  as  treble 
the  damages  he  claimed  to  have  sustained,  by 
reason  of  the  defendants'  supposed  violation  of 
the  Federal  Anti  Trust  Statutes  alleging  that  the 
defendants  had  entered  into  a  conspiracy  to  put 
him  out  of  business  largely  by  refusing  to  deal 
with  him. 

The  trial  court  directed  a  verdict  for  the  de- 
fendants upon  two  grounds  first,  that  the  trans- 
actions described  by  the  plaintiff  did  not  involve 
or  disclose  any  restraint  of  interstate  trade  and 
commerce  as  claimed  by  plaintiff  and  second,  that 
the  alleged  acts  of  the  defendants  were  not  in 
other  respects  unlawful. 

In  the  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  tw^o  judges 
were  of  the  opinion  that  the  transactions  described 
did  not  involve  interstate  commerce  and  upon  that 
ground  the  judgment  in  favor  of  the  defendants 
was  affirmed.  One  of  the  judges  in  the  Circuit 
Court  of  Appeals  dissented  upon  the  ground  that 
the  transactions  described  did  involve  interstate 
commerce  and  the  case  is  now  pending  in  the 
Supreme   Court  of   the  United   States. 

The    Nebraska   Advance    Deposit    Law 

In  the  latter  part  of  the  year  1921  the  Attorney 
General  of  the  State  of  Nebraska  notified  all  of 
the  National  Distributors  doing  business  in  that 
State  that  unless  they  observed  the  provisions  of 
the  so-called  Nebraska  Advance  Deposit  Bill,  he 
would  be  obliged  to  institute  proceedings  against 
them    to   compel    its   enforcement. 

Thereupon  in  December,  1921,  The  Goldwyn 
Distributing  Corporation  in  conjunction  with  five 
other  national  distributing  corporations,  filed  a 
suit  in  the  Federal  Court  in  that  State  to  enjoin 
the  Attorney  General  and  all  State  officers  charged 
with  the  enforcement  of  the  laws  of  that  State, 
from  enforcing  the  provisions  of  the  Advance  De- 
posit Law  against  them  or  any  other  distributors, 
upon  the  ground  that  the  statute  violated  several 
provisions  of  the  Federal  Constitution  as  well  as 
certain  provisions  of  the  Constitution  of  the  State 
of  Nebraska  and  was  for  these  reasons  unenforce- 
able and  void. 

The  complainants'  application  for  a  temporary 
injunction  came  on  for  hearing  on  February  27, 
1922,  before  three  Federal  Judges  sitting  in  Omaha, 
and  resulted  in  a  decision  which  declared  the 
statute  unconstitutional  and  in  an  order  granting 
the  injunction. 

Circuit  Judge  Lewis  delivered  the  opinion  ot 
the  Court,  in  which  he  said  in  part : 

"Judge  Munger  and  I  are  of  the  view  that  the 
provision  of  the  act  requiring  that  'money  depos- 
ited or  advanced  as  security  on  a  contract  for 
the  use  or  rental  of  motion  picture  films,  reels  or 
views  and  to  secure  the  performance  of  the  con- 
tract or  to  be  applied  to  payments  upon  such  con- 
tract when  due,  such  money,  with  interest  ac- 
cruing thereon,  if  any,  until  repaid  or  so  applied, 
shall  continue  to  be  the  money  of  the  person, 
association  or  corporation  making  such  deposit  or 
advance  and  shall  be  a  trust  fund,'  is  a  valid  exer- 
cise of  the  police  power  of  the  State,  and  that 
in   that  respect   the  act  is  constitutional. 

"Judge  Woodrough  is  of  the  opinion  that  the 
purpose  of  the  Act,  considering  its  title,  is  broader 
in  scope  than  to  apply  it  simply  to  money  ad- 
vanced as  security  for  the  performance  of  a  con- 
tract ;  that  its  purpose  is  to  require  all  payments 
on  a  contract  to  be  kept  within  the  State  and 
declared  as  a  trust  fund,  and  so  considering  it  in 
that  respect,  that  it  is  an  interference  with  the 
right  of   contract  and   is   void. 

"We  all  agree,  however,  that  the  following  pro- 
vision of  the  statute,  with  reference  to  the  de- 
posit of  these  funds  in  any  bank  or  trust  com- 
pany within  the  State  of  Nebraska,  is  not  a  per- 
missible exercise  of  the  police  power,  that  it  puts 
the  hazard  both  upon  the  bailor  and  bailee  of 
having  the  funds  lost  through  the  failure  of  the 
hank,  without  any  provision  for  restitution  to  the 
party   entitled   to   the   funds.      In   other   words,    that 


it  takes,  as  it  were,  in  that  event,  the  prope-ty 
of  the  party  who  might  ultimately  be  entitled  to 
the  deposit  without  any  consideration.  The  fund 
to  be  on  deposit  as  a  trust  fund,  named  in  the 
act,  would  ultimately  belong  to  one  or  the  other 
of  the  parties  to  the  contract.  It  takes  from  the 
bailee  the  exercise  of  his  judgment  and  responsi- 
bility in  the  keeping  of  that  fund;  it  requires  that 
he  put  that  fund  in  some  bank  or  trust  company 
within  the  State  of  Nebraska.  It  makes  no  pro- 
vision, by  taxation  or  otherwise,  in  event  of  failure 
of  the  bank,  for  the  restoration  of  that  fund  and 
its  payment  ultimately  to  the  party  who  might  be 
entitled  to  the  fund.  For  that  reason  we  agree 
that  it  is  an  interference  with  the  constitutional 
right  of  property  and  the  disposition  of  property." 

Judge  Munger  added  the  following: 

"My  opinion  is  that  the  act  is  unconstitutional 
as  it  applies  to  the  bailees  mentioned  in  it,  of 
whom  the  plaintiff  and  intervenors  are  some;  that 
these  bailees  have  the  right  to  liberty  and  prop- 
erty granted  to  them  by  the  Fourteenth  Amend 
ment  to  the  Constitution.  I  say  this  in  that  the 
money  wh  ch  the  act  provides  is  or  may  be  paid 
to  them  shall  be  deposited  in  a  Nebraska  bank, 
or  a  Nebraska  trust  company,  instead  of  allow- 
ing them  freedom  of  contract  and  of  will,  which 
are  a  part  of  liberty  and  property,  by  placing 
the  money  in  such  other  place  of  deposit,  or 
keeping  it  without  deposit,  as  in  the  judgment 
of  the  bailees  should  be  done  with  it  under  the 
circumstances.  My  impression  also  is  that  the 
Act  offends  against  the  interstate  commerce  clause 
of  the  United  States  Constitution,  in  that  the 
plaintiff  and  intervenors,  as  such  bailees,  under 
these  contracts,  would  have  the  right  to  take 
the  money  received  as  bailment  to  such  other 
place  without  the  State  of  Nebraska  as  in  their 
judgment  would  be  more  suitable  to  its  safety 
and    the    management    of    their    business." 

Nothing  further  has  been  done  in  the  case 
and  counsel  interested  in  it  are  of  the  opinion 
that  the  Court's  decision  finally  disposes  of  the 
questions    involved. 

The  case  is  of  great  importance  to  the  industry. 
Five  states  have  passed  so-called  Advance  De- 
posit laws,  namely.  New  York,  West  Virginia, 
Nebraska,    M  ssouri    and    Kansas. 

The  decision  not  only  invalidates  the  Advance 
Deposit  Law  of  Nebraska,  but  it  indicates  that 
a  similar  result  would  be  obtained  if  the  validity 
of  the  Advance  Deposit  Law  of  Missouri  or  Kansas 
should  be  drawn  in  question  under  similar  cir- 
cumstances. The  Nebraska  statute  and  the 
statute  of  Missouri  and  Kansas  are  very  similar, 
and  inasmuch  as  each  of  these  states  is  within 
the  Eighth  Judicial  Circuit  in  which  the  decision 
was  rendered,  it  greatly  strengthens  the  belief 
of  many  well  informed  counsel  that  the  statutes 
of  Missouri  and  Kansas  are  iust  as  vulnerable 
as  the  statute  of  Nebraska  and  that  both  would 
be  declared  invalid  if  their  validity  should  ever 
be    attacked. 

News  Reels  Held  To  Be  Within  The  New  York 
Censorship    Law 

In  May,  1922.  the  Pathe  Exchange  Tnc..  in- 
stituted a  suit  against  the  members  of  the  Mo- 
tion Picture  Comm'ssion  of  the  State  of  New 
York,  to  restrain  the  Commissinn  from  enforcng 
the  provisions  of  the  New  York  Censorship 
Statute  in  so  far  as  the  provisions  of  that 
statute  appeared  to  be  applicable  to  the  news  reels 
and  "Current  Events"  in  Film  distributed  by 
Pathe    Exchange. 

The  controversy  was  submitted  to  the  Appellate 
Division  in  the  Sunreme  Court.  Third  D-oartment. 
upon  an  agreed  statements  of  facts  and  was  de- 
cided early  in  July.  1922.  Pathe  claimed  that 
news  reels  were  not  like  other  motion  pictures 
because  news  reels  depicted  actual  hapoeriings 
and  events  as  thev  occurred  and  were  not  fictional 
or  dramatic  nroductions  in  the  theatrical  sense. 
but  were  a  well-established  method  of  transmitting 
news  to  the  public  in  pictorial  form  and  as 
such,  that  news  reels  were  in  the  same  class 
and  category  as  newspapers,  and  consequently 
entitled  to  tl<e  s.-mie  ronstitntV-  al  privileges  and 
immunities    as    the    press    enioyed. 

That  portion  of  the  Constitution  of  the  State 
of   New   York   which   gugrcVitQcs   freedom   of  speech 


370 


and  of  the  press,  was  relied  upon,  and  it  was 
claimed  that  the  censorship  statute  in  its  applica- 
tion to  news  reels  deprived  Pathe  Exchange  of 
its  property  without  due  process  and  denied  to 
it  the  equal  protection  of  the  laws  in  violation 
of  the  Fourteenth  Amendment  of  the  Federal 
Constitution. 

The    Court    disposed    of    these    contentions    by 

"If  this  act  constitutes  a  valid  exercise  of  the 
police  power  for  the  preservation  of  the  morals 
or  welfare  of  the  community,  it  does  not  operate 
to  deprive  the  plaintiff  of  property  without  due 
process  of  law.  Unless  the  biweekly  motion 
picture  news  reel  is  in  the  same  legal  category 
as  a  newspaper  and  the  liberty  of  the  press 
would  protect  newspapers  from  such  restraint  as 
is  here  sought  to  be  exercised,  there  would  be 
no  denial  of  the  equal  protection  of  the  laws. 
The  main  question  before  us,  therefore,  is  wether 
the  bi-weekly  motion  picture  news  reel  is  in  the 
same  legal  category  as  a  newspaper,  and  whether 
the  restraint  caused  by  this  act  is  of  such  a 
character  as  to  be  a  violation  of  that  provision 
of  our  State  Constitution  relating  to  the  liberty 
of  the  press." 

The  Court  then  proceeded  to  decide  that  news 
reels  were  not  in  the  same  class  and  category 
as  the  press,  and  that  the  statutory  provisions 
relied   upon    were   not   applicable   to  news   reels. 

The  Court  also  expressed  the  view  that  the 
questions  presented  to  it  for  decision  had  already 
been  decided  adversely  to  the  contention  of  Pathe, 
by  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United  States  in  the 
Mutual  Film  Corporation  cases  brought  to  test 
the  constitutional  validity  of  the  censorship  statute 
of  Ohio  and  Kansas,  but  the  Court  concluded  that 
if  the  same  questions  were  not  so  involved,  that 
nevertheless,  upon  principle,  the  plaintiff  could 
not  succeed  in  its  contention  and  that  the  defend- 
ant was  entitled  to  judgment  sustaining  the  con- 
stitutional  validity    of    the    statute. 

It  is  understood  that  a  review  of  this  decision 
will  be  sought  in  the  Supreme  Court  of  the  United 
States. 

Some  Important  Cases 

A  verdict  of  $17,500  in  favor  of  the  Alhambra 
Amusement  Co.,  Inc.,  of  Utica,  N.  Y.  against 
Associated  First  National  Pictures,  Inc.,  of  New 
York,  was  awarded  by  a  jury  in  Supreme  Court 
before   Justice    Louis    M.    Martin    in    February. 

T'^e  Ut  ca  theatrical  firm  brought  the  breach  of 
promise  action  of  $40,000  when  it  alleged  that 
First  National  repudiated  a  contract  or  franchise 
to  deliver  exclusive  feature  pictures  here,  and 
then  sold  the  franchise  to  a  competitor.  The  case 
was  appealed. 

Gland's   Salary   Decision 

The  New  York  State  Supreme  Court  established 
a  legal  precedent  by  granting  Warner  Oland  salary 
in   full   on  a   disputed   account    with   Pathe,    Inc. 

Oland  sued  for  six  weeks  salary  and  Pathe  con- 
tended that  he  had  been  released  from  service 
when  all  the  scenes  in  which  he  appeared  were 
shot.  The  Supreme  Court  decided  Oland  was  en- 
titled to  the  full  six  weeks  sa'ary. 

The  Binderup  Case 

On  Oct.  17  the  United  States  Supreme  Court 
has  denied  the  petition  of  Charles  Ci.  Binderup, 
asking  for  a  writ  of  certiorari  to  have  the  Eighth 
Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  review  his  suit  against 
Pathe  Exchange,  Inc.,  the  Omaha  Film  Board  of 
Trade  et  al  asking  $750,000  damages.  It  is  still 
possible  for  Binderup  to  seek  review  of  the  case 
by   a  writ   of  error. 

Binderup  brought  the  action  in  Omaha.several 
years  ago.  to  recover  three-fold  damages  in  the 
sum  of  $750,000  for  injuries  due  to  an  alleged 
illegal  combination  and  conspiracy  and  combination 
in    violation   of   the   Sherman   anti-trust   act. 

It  was  claimed  that  the  respondents,  with  the 
motive  of  destroying  the  petitioner's  business,  and 
securing  control  of  the  motion  picture  industry, 
refused  to  lease,  sell  or  deliver  to  the  petitioner 
any  motion  picture  films  upon  any  terms  or  con- 
ditions whatsoever  at  any  time.  The  petitioner  al- 
leged that  lie  was  unable  to  secure  films  from 
any   other   source  and   that,   by   the   acts   of   the   de- 


fendants,   his    business    of    conducting    moliuii    pic 
ture   theaters   was   totally    destroyed. 

The  United  States  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals  held 
that  the  business  involved  in  the  suit  did  not  con- 
stitute  inter-state   commerce. 

Japan   Rules   Against    Piracy 

The  Japan  Advertiser,  one  of  the  leading  news- 
papers of  Tokio,  published  details  of  a  court 
decision  establishing  a  precedent  for  American 
film   protection   in   Japan. 

This  court  ruling  grew  out  of  an  action  brought 
by  United  Artists  Corp.  to  prevent  illegal  showing 
of  D.  W.  Griiifith's  "Way  Down  East."  It  is  the 
first  decision  of  such  a  nature  ever  obtained  by  a 
foreign  film  corporation  in  Japanese  courts  and 
sets  a  precedent  for  protecting  American  pro- 
ducers against  film  piracy.  The  advertiser's  re- 
port says  : 

"The  decision  establishes  the  precedent  for  in- 
voking the  protection  of  the  law  relative  to  the 
"rights  of  author"  in  favor  of  the  legal  holder  of 
copyrights  in  foreign  films  in  Japan. 

"The  court's  decision  is  believed  to  settle  once 
and  for  all  the  question  of  motion  picture  copy- 
right   protection.*    *    *" 

Advance  Deposit  Law  Unconstitutional 
Below  will  1  e  found  the  full  text  of  the  opinion 
rendered  at  the  close  of  the  litigation  in  Omaha 
on  Feb.  27,  when  the  U.  S.  District  Court  of 
Nebraska,  Judges  C.  J.  Lewis,  D.  J.  iiMunger  and 
D.  J.  Woodrough  sitting,  decided  the  Nebraska 
deposit   law    was    unconstitutional. 

The  plaintiff  was  the  Goldwyn  Distributing 
Corp.,  and  the  defendants,  Clarance  A.  Davis,  At- 
torney-General of  Nebraska  and  Abel  V.  Shotwell, 
County  Attorney  of  Douglas  County,  Nebraska. 
Although  Goldwyn  is  the  plaintiff,  it  is  understood, 
it  was  by  agreement  of  attorneys  of  the  distributing 
companies  that  Goldwyn  brought  on  the  test  case. 
The  text   is  as   follows : 

Lewis,  Circuit  Judge:  "This  suit  is  now  being 
heard  under  Section  266  of  the  Judicial  Code, 
which  provides  that  no  interlocutory  injunction 
suspending  or  restraining  the  enforcement,  opera- 
tion or  execution  of  any  statute  of  a  state,  or 
restraining  the  action  of  any  ofificer  of  said  state 
in  the  enforcement  or  execution  of  such  statute 
shall  be  issued  or  granted,  and  so  on,  upon  the 
ground  of  the  unconstitutionality  of  such  statute, 
unless  application  for  the  same  shall  be  presented 
to  a  justice  of  the   Supreme   Court,  and  so   on. 

The  Legislative  Act  the  constitutionality  of  which 
is  challenged  by  the  bill  was  approved  April  8,  1921, 
and  is  entitled :  "An  Act  fixing  the  ownership, 
status,  and  method  and  place  of  deposit  of  moneys 
received  or  deposited  on  contracts  for  the  use  or 
rental  of  motion  picture  films,  reels  or  views,  and 
making  any  waiver  of  the  protection  of  the  act  by 
persons,  associations,  or  corporations  making  such 
deposits,    void." 

Judge  Munger  and  I  are  of  the  view  that  the 
provision  of  the  Act  requiring  that  money  deposited 
or  advanced  as  security  on  a  contract  for  hte 
use  or  rental  of  motion  picture  films,  reels  or 
views,  and  to  secure  the  performance  of  the 
contract  or  to  be  applied  to  payments  upon  such 
contract  when  due,  such  money,  with  interest 
accruing  thereon,  if  any,  until  repaid  or  so  applied, 
shall  continue  to  be  the  money  of  the  person,  asso- 
ciation or  corporation  making  such  deposit  or 
advance  and  shall  be  a  trust  fund,  is  a  valid  exer- 
cise of  the  police  power  of  the  State,  and  that  in 
that  respect  the  Act  is  constitutional. 

Judge  Woodrough  is  of  the  opinion  that  the 
purpose  of  the  Act,  considering  its  title,  is  broader 
in  scope  than  to  apply  it  simply  to  money  advanced 
as  security  for  the  performance  of  a  contract ; 
that  its  purpose  is  to  require  all  payments  on  a 
contract  to  be  kept  within  the  State  and  declared 
as  a  trust  fund,  and  so  considering  it  in  that 
respect,  that  it  is  an  interference  with  the  right 
of  contract  and  is  void. 

We  all  agree,  however,  that  the  following  pro- 
vision of  the  statute,  with  reference  to  the  deposit 
of  these  funds  in  any  bank  or  trust  company  with- 
in the  State  of  Nebraska,  is  not  a  permissible 
exercise  of  the  police  power,  that  it  puts  the 
hazard  both  upon  the  bailor  and  bailee  of  having 
the    funds    lost    through    tl.e    failure    of    the    bank, 


371 


without  any  provision  for  restitution  to  the  party 
entitled  to'  the  funds.  In  other  words,  that  it 
taies,  as  it  were,  in  that  event,  the  property  of 
the  party  who  might  ultimately  be  entitled  to  the 
deposit  without  any  consideration.  TJie  fund  to 
be  on  deposit  as  a  trust  fund,  named  in  the  Act, 
would  ultimately  belong  to  one  or  the  other  of 
the  parties  to  the  contract.  It  takes  from  the 
bailee  the  exercise  of  his  judginent  and  respon- 
sibility in  the  keeping  of  that  fund;  it  requires 
that  he  put  that  fund  in  some  bank  or  trust 
company  within  the  State  of  Nebraska.  It  makes 
no  provision,  by  taxation  or  otherwise,  in  the 
event  of  failure  of  the  bank,  for  the  restoration  of 
that  fund  and  its  payment  ultimately  to  the  party 
who  might  be  entitled  to  the  fund.  For  that  reason 
we  agree  that  it  is  an  interference  with  the  con- 
stitutional right  of  property  and  the  disposition 
of  property. 

If  Judge  Hunger  and  Judge  Woodrough  wish  to 
add  anything  to  what  has  been  said  as  to  our 
conclusion,   I    would   be   glad   to   have  them   do   so. 

Judge    Woodrough :      I    agree    in    the   conclusion. 

Judge  Hunger :  Hy  opinion  is  that  the  Act  is 
unconstitutional  as  it  applies  to  the  bailee  men- 
tioned in  it,  of  whom  the  plaintiff  and  intervenors 
are  some ;  that  these  bailees  have  the  right  to 
liberty  and  property  guaranteed  to  them  by  the 
Fourteenth  Amendment  to  the  Constitution.  I  say 
this  in  that  the  money  which  the  Act  provides 
is  or  may  be  paid  to  them  shall  be  deposited  in  a 
Nebraska  bank,  or  a  Nebraska  trust  company, 
instead  of  allowing  them  freedom  of  contract  and 
of  will,  which  are  a  part  of  liberty  and  property, 
by  placing  the  money  in  such  other  place  of  de- 
posit, or  keeping  it  without  deposit,  as  in  the 
judgment  of  the  bailees  should  be  done  with  it 
under  the  circumstances.  Hy  impression  also  is 
that  the  Act  offends  against  the  interstate  clause 
of  the  United  States  Constitution,  in  that  the 
plaintiff  and  intervenors,  as  such  bailees,  under 
these  contracts,  would  have  the  right  to  take  the 
money  received  as  bailment  to  such  other  place 
without  the  State  of  Nebraska  in  their  judgment 
would  be  more  suitable  to  its  safety  and  the 
management   of    their   business. 

Judge  Lewis :  The  writ  will  issue  as  prayed 
for,  on  the  filing  with  the  clerk  of  a  bond  in  the 
sum  of  one  thousand  dollars  ($1,000),  to  be 
approved  by  one  of  the  judges.  The  defendants' 
exceptions  may  be  entered. 

Do  you  want  a  ruling  on  the  application  for 
intervention? 

Hr.  Seabury :  I  would  be  pleased  to  have 
a  ruling.  Your  Honor.  I  had  assumed  it  would 
follow  as  a  matter  of  course  that  they  would  be 
permitted  to  intervene.  Hr.  Hullen  just  called 
my  attention  to  it. 

Judge  Lewis :  The  petition  for  intervention  will 
be  sustained.  That  order  will  be  entered  first  in 
the  record. 

Hr.  Rait :  I  would  like  to  make  an  inquiry. 
Does  the  ruling  go  to  the  effect  that  the  funds 
must  be  kept  within  the  State,  or  may  they  go 
out?  Is  the  statute  valid  as  to  keeping  them 
within  the  State,  or  letting  the  parties  agree 
as  to   the  depository? 

Judge  Lewis :  We  hold  the  entire  act  void 
because  it  requires  the  deposit  of  funds  within  a 
bank  or  trust  company  within  the  State  of  Neb- 
raska. 

Play   or   Pay 

In  December,  the  Superior  Court  in  Boston 
rendered  a  verdict  in  behalf  of  the  Vitagraph  Co. 
of  America  against  the  Park  Theater  for  films 
contracted  for,  and  not  exhibited,  thus  establish- 
ing  a  precedent. 

Valnetino  Injunction  Upheld 
In  December,  the  Apjiellate  Division  of  the 
Supreme  Court  of  New  York,  sustained  the  lower 
court  granting  to  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corp. 
temporary  injunction  restraining  Rodolph  Valen- 
tino from  appearing  in  public  for  any  other  than 
the  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corp.,  in  view  of  his 
contractural  relations.  The  hearing  on  the  final 
injunction  will  take  place  early  in   1923. 


CASES  BEFORE  THE  FEDERAL  TRADE 

COMMISSION 
(Through    the    Courtesy    of    Gaylord    R.    Hawkins) 

The  decision  of  the  Federal  Trade  Commission 
in  its  case  against  the  Eskay  Harris  Feature  Film 
Company  is  of  particular  interest  to  the  motion 
picture  industry.  It  was  charged  that  the  Eskay 
Harris  Company  had  procured  positive  prints  of 
a  picture  produced  in  1917  by  the  Thomas  A.  Edi- 
son, Inc.,  entitled,  "Your  Obedient  Servant,"  and 
after  making  certain  additions  thereto,  changed 
the  title  to  that  of  "Black  Beauty"  and  adver- 
tised and  distributed  it  under  this  new  title  with- 
out notifying  the  trade  or  public  that  the  picture 
had  formerly  been  released  under  another  title; 
also  that  this  picture  was  not  an  adaptation  of  the 
well-known  book  "Black  Beauty,"  written  by  Anna 
Sewell,  but  that  the  respondent  advertised  it  as 
depicting  the  Anna  Sewell  story.  It  was  further 
charged  that  the  Eskay  Harris  Company,  prior  to 
the  time  it  procured  the  film  "Your  Obedient  Ser- 
vant," had  received  notice  of  the  fact  that  the 
Vitagraph  Company  was  producing,  and  would  in 
the  near  future  release,  a  picture  titled  "Black 
Beauty,"  and  the  respondent  released  its  picture 
shortly  in  advance  of  the  Vitagraph  picture,  there- 
by appropriating  the  advertising  values  which  had 
accrued  and  attached  to  the  name  of  "Black  Beau- 
ty" and  which  had  been  created  by  an  extensive 
publicity  and  advertising  campaign  carried  on  by 
the  Vitagraph  Com.pany ;  and  that  the  respondent, 
although  never  having  copyrighted  its  picture,  put 
warning  notices  in  the  trade  press  claiming  a  con- 
trol of  and  the  exclusive  right  to  the  name  and 
picture  "Black  Beauty,"  and  threatening  to  pros- 
ecute anyone  showing  a  motion  picture  entitled 
"Black  Beauty,"  without  its  permission,  and  sent 
copies  of  this  notice  to  all  the  Vitagraph  branch 
managers  but  did  not  institute  any  suit  for  in- 
fringement; and  that  such  acts  and  practices  con- 
stituted unfair  competition  within  the  intent  and 
meaning  of  Section  5  of  the  Federal  Trade  Com- 
mission Act.  After  a  trial  upon  the  merits  an 
order  was  entered  requiring  the  respondent  to 
cease  and  desist  from  (1)  procuring  motion  pic- 
ture photoplays  which  have  been  exhibited  to  the 
public  under  and  by  given  titles  and  changing 
such  titles  and  advertising,  selling,  leasing  or  offer- 
ing to  sell  or  lease  the  films  depicting  such  retitled 
photoplays  unless  the  fact  that  such  photoplays 
have  been  formerly  exhibited  under  other  titles  be 
stated  and  set  forth  in  the  photoplay  itself  and  in 
any  and  all  advertising  and  publicity  matter  used 
in  connection  therewith  in  letters  and  type  equal 
in  size  and  prominence  to  those  used  in  display- 
ing the  new  title;  (2)  using  the  words  "Black 
Beauty"  standing  alone  or  in  conjunction  with 
other  words  as  a  title  for  or  an  identification  of 
the  film  depicting  in  whole  or  in  part  the  photo- 
play produced  in  1917  by  Thomas  A.  Edison,  Inc., 
titled  "Your  Obedient  Servant,"  or  in  any  lan- 
tern slides,  posters,  heralds,  booklets,  or  in  any 
advertising  or  publicity  matter  used  in  connec-

any  warning  notice  threatening  to  bring  suit  against 
anyone  showing  a  motion  picture  entitled  "Black 
Beauty"  without  the  permission  of  the  Eskay  Har- 
ris Feature  Film  Company  and  asserting  that  the 
motion  picture  rights  and  title  to  the  name  of 
Black  Beauty  are  controlled  by  said  company. 
This  case  will  be  reported  in  Volume  V  of  the 
Commission's  Decisions. 

Five  Important  Cases 

During  the  past  year  the  Commission  has  insti- 
tuted proceedings  in  five  cases  of  importance  to 
the  industry. 

In  a  complaint  against  the  Famous  Players- 
Lasky  Corporation,  The  Stanley  Company  of 
America,  Stanley  Booking  Corporation,  Black 
New  England  Theaters,  Inc.,  Southern  Enterprises, 
Inc.,  Saenger  Amusement  Company,  Adolph  Zu- 
kor,  Jesse  L.  Lasky,  Jules  Hastbaum,  Alfred  S. 
Black,  Stephen  A.  Lynch  and  Ernest  V.  Rich- 
ards, Jr.  (Docket  No.  835),  unfair  methods  of 
competition  are  charged  in  that  the  respondents 
Famous  Players-Lasky  Corporation,  Adolph  Zukor 
and  Jesse  L.  Lasky  have  combined  and  conspired 
to  secure  control  of  and  monopolize  the  motion 
picture  industry,  and  to  restrain,  restrict  and  sup- 
press   competition    in    the    distribution    of    motion 


zn 


picture  films  by  (a)  acquisition  of  all  the  corpo- 
rate stock  of  Bosworth,  Inc.,  Tesse  L.  Lasky 
feature  Play  Company,  Inc.,  Famous  Players 
hilm  Company,  and,  by  coercion.  Paramount  Pic- 
tures Corporation;  (b)  affih'ation  with  certain  in- 
dependent producers;  (c)  the  creation  and  ex- 
ploitation of  the  Realart  Pictures  Corporation 
which  the  respondents  held  out  to  the  general 
public  as  wholly  independent  and  not  affiliated  with 
or  controlled  by  said  respondents;  (d)  acquiring 
with  the  aid  of  the  other  respondents  the  control 
of  numerous  theater  corporations  operating  mo- 
tion picture  theaters  throughout  the  United  States 
and  (e)  building  or  acquiring  numerous  theaters 
for  the  exhibition  of  respondents'  motion  pictures 
exclusively,  all  in  alleged  violation  of  Section  5  of 
the  Federal  Trade  Commission  Act,  and,  as  to 
respondents  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corporation, 
Adolph  Zukor  and  Jesse  L.  Lasky,  in  alleged  vio- 
lation of  Section  7  of  the  Clayton  Act.  The  trial 
of  this  case  is  expected  to  be  concluded  in  the 
coming  year.        .r   ,  •     ^ 

Unfair  Competition 

In  a  complaint  against  the  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce of  Missoula,  Montana,  its  officers,  directors 
and  members,  and  The  Northwest  Theaters  Com- 
pany of  Missoula,  Montana  (Docket  No.  841), 
unfair  methods  of  competition  are  charged  in  that 
the  respondents  conspired  to  hinder  or  prevent 
the  sale  of  goods  by  mail  order  houses  situated 
without  the  State  of  Montana,  by  providing  for 
the  acceptance  of  catalogs  of  mail  order  houses  in 
lieu  of  the  usual  price  of  admission  to  a  theater 
of  The  Northwest  Theaters  Company,  and  by 
offering  prizes  for  certain  of  such  catalogs,  all 
such  catalogs  being  destroyed  subsequent  to  re- 
ceipt and  pursuant  to  said  conspiracy,  in  alleged 
violation  of  Section  5  of  the  Federal  Trade  Com- 
mission Act.  The  testimony  in  this  case  has  been 
introduced  and  an  early  decision  by  the  Commis- 
.sion  is  expected. 

In  the  case  against  Fox  Film  Corporation 
(Docket  No.  901)  unfair  methods  of  competition 
are  charged  in  that  the  respondent,  select.ng  sev- 
eral photoplays  which  it  had  produced  previously 
and  which  had  been  exhibited  throughout  the 
United  States,  gave  them  new  titles  different  from 
those  under  which  they  had  theretofore  been 
exhibited  to  the  public,  correspondingly  changed 
the  films,  and  supplied  them,  with  new  advertising 
matter,  to  exhibitors,  without  disclosing  the  fact 
that  the  same  were  reissues,  thereby  tending  to 
mislead  the  exhibitors  and  through  them  the  pub- 
lic, into  the  belief  that  these  reissues  were  new 
releases.  Among  the  pictures  alleged  to  have  been 
so  released  were:  "The  Yankee  Way"  as  "Sink 
or  Swim,"  "The  Love  Thief"  as  "The  She  Tiger" 
and  "The  Silent  Life"  as  "Camille  of  the  Yukon." 
This  case  has  been  submitted  to  the  Commission 
upon  an  agreed  statement  of  facts,  without  intro- 
ducing the  testimony  of  any  witnesses,  and  upon 
such  submission  the  Commission  will  render  its 
decision. 

Another  similar  case  is  that  against  American 
Film  Corporation  (Docket  No.  903),  wherein  un- 
fair methods  of  competition  are  charged  in  that 
the  respondent  selected  photoplays  which  it  had 
produced  previously  and  which  had  been  exhibited 
throughout  the  United  States,  gave  them  new  titles 
different  from  those  under  which  they  had  there- 
tofore been  exhibited  to  the  public,  and  corre- 
spondingly changed  the  films,  adding  thereto  an 
inconsequential  amount  of  new  or  addit'onal  mat- 
ter, and  released  said  films  with  new  advertising 
matter  to  exhibitors  without  disclosing  the  fact 
tl  at  they  were  reissues,  thereby  tend.ng  to  mis- 
lead exhibitors  and  the  pulibc  to  believe  that  these 
re.ss-.es  were  new  issues  and  to  discredit  the  stars 
who  acted  the  leading  roles  in  these  reissues  and 
the  current  productions  in  which  the  stars  were 
apptaring  before  the  public  at  the  time  the  re- 
sjjondcnt's  reissues  were  being  explo'ted  and  ex- 
hibited. Among  the  films  alleged  to  have  been  so 
re'ssued  were:  "The  Mate  of  the  Sally  Ann"  as 
"Peggy  Rebels,"  "Snap  Judgment"  as  "Slam  Bang 
Jim,"  "The  Torch  Bearer"  as  "From  tlie  West," 
"In  Bad"  as  "Quick  Action,"  "Faiih"  as  "The 
\'irtuous  Outcast,"  "Annie  for  Spite"  as  "Sally 
Shows  the  Way,"  "The  Manager  of  the  B.  &  A." 
as  "The  Man  from  Medicine  Hat,"  "Judith  of  the 
Cumberlands"   as   "The   Moonshine   Menace,"    "The 


Frame  Up"  as  "High-Gear  Jeffrey,"  "My  Fight- 
ing Gentleman"  as  "A  Rough  Shot  Fighter," 
"Youth's  Endearing  Charms"  as  "Youth's  Melt- 
ing Pot"  "The  Marriage  Bargain"  as  "The  Inno- 
cence of  Lizzette,"  "The  Diamond  Runners"  as 
"A  Crook  s  Romance,"  "The  Lass  of  the  Lim- 
berlands"  as  "The  Loggers  of  Hell  lioarin'  Moun- 
tain," and  "New  York  Luck"  as  "A  Live  Wire 
Hick."     This  case  is  awaiting  trial. 

Similarly,  in  the  case  of  the  Commission  against 
Film  Distributors  League,  Inc.,  Eastern  Feature 
I'ilm  Company,  Favorite  Players  Film  Corporation, 
Lande  Film  Distributing  Corporation  (of  Ohio), 
Lande  Film  Distributing  Corporation  (of  Dela- 
ware), Supreme  Photo  Play  Corporation,  Favorite 
Film  Company,  Friedman  Film  Corporation,  Alex- 
ander Film  Corporation,  Supreme  Film  Company, 
Quality  Film  Corporation,  Leo  G.  Garner,  doing 
business  under  the  trade  name  and  style  Reliance 
Film  Exchange,  M.  Brown,  doing  business  under 
the  trade  name  and  style  Capital  Film  Exchange, 
William  Alexander,  Maurice  Fleckles,  Herman 
Rifkin  (Docket  No.  913),  it  is  charged  that  the 
respondent  distributors  of  motion  'picture  films 
are  the  members  of  the  respondent  Film  Distrib- 
utors League,  Inc.  Unfair  methods  of  competi- 
tion are  charged  in  that  the  respondents,  at  the 
time  of  the  production  of  a  photoplay  entitled  "The 
Three  Musketeers"  by  the  Douglas  Fairbanks  in- 
terests, with  the  purpose  of  trading  on  the  popu- 
larity of  said  Douglas  Fairbanks  and  on  the  de- 
mand created  by  advance  advertising  of  his  pro- 
duction, reissued  the  photo  play  "D'Artagnan," 
produced  for  the  Triangle  Film  Corporation  in 
1915,  after  changing  the  name  to  "The  Three  Mus- 
keteers," and  advertised  said  reissue  and  in  some 
instances  by  displaying  in  inconspicuous  type  a 
statement  to  the  effect  that  the  respondent's  photo 
play  was  formerly  entitled  D'Artagnan,  or  was  an 
adaption  or  recreation  of  D'Artagnan,  and  in  that 
tie  respondents  to  further  the  deception  that  the 
sa^d  reissue  was  the  Fairbanks  production  sup- 
plied for  exhibition  with  the  ressue  other  photo 
p'a.vs  in  which  said  Douglas  Fairbanks  did  enact 
the  leading  role,  all  for  the  purpose  of  mislead- 
ing and  .deceiving  the  public,  in  alleged  violation  of 
Section  S   of  the  Federal  Trade  Commission  Act.

The  Coming  Year 


Never  So  Optimistic 

The  large  number  of  big  pictures  put  on  the 
market  at  the  opening  of  this  season  has  done 
so  much  to  inspire  confidence  throughout  the 
tMire  picture  industry  and  has  been  such  a  big 
factor  in  rehabihtating  pubHc  patronage  of  films, 
that  1  never  was  so  optimistic  as  I  am  now  in 
iuoking  into  the  year  1923.  This  industry  is 
on  the  uptrail  and  is  moving  swiftly  toward  a 
doom  period.  If  ail  of  the  producers  continue 
their  eflforts  toward  sending  out  big  productions, 
and  exhibitors,  with  renewed  confidence,  exploit 
these  picures  to  the  limit  of  their  capacities, 
I ''23,  I  firmly  believe,  will  be  a  banner  year  for 
[licturc  history.  We  must  be  cautious,  however, 
and  not  take  it  for  granted  that  prosperity  will 
continue  with  us  unless  we  exert  every  ounce 
of  energy  at  our  command  to  keep  it  here, 
l^ossibly  this  word  of  caution  is  not  altogether 
necessary,  as  I  believe  the  business  has  learned 
its  lesson  and  was  never  in  better  shape  and 
on  a   sounder   foundation   than   it   is  now. 

ADOLPH    ZUKOR. 

Excellent  for  Good  Productions 

The  outlook  for  1923  is  excellent  for  produc- 
tions with  genuine  entertainment  value  and  less 
profitable  than  ever  for  pictures  of  the  so-called 
ord  nary  type.  Independent  producers  will  in- 
crease in  numbers  and  the  big  special  attractions, 
which  set  the  pace  for  the  industry  and  retain  the 
screen  hold  on  popular  fancy,  will  come  more 
particularly  from  independent  producers  than  in 
seasons   in   the  past.  j    j)    WILLIAMS.

Bright 


The  ouluok  for  1923  is  in  my  mind  very  bright. 
1  recently  have  completed  a  seven  weeks'  tour 
of  the  country  and  found  exhibitors  optimistic 
about  the  coming  season.  If  the  producers  furnish 
the  proper  vehicles  I  am  certain  1923  will  be  a 
banner  year  for  the  Motion  Picture  Industry. 

JAMES  R.  GRAINGER. 

Back  to  Normal 

I  believe  that  the  motion  picture  industry  will 
recover  from  the  after-war  depression  as  rapidly 
as  any  other  industry  in  the  country.  I  believe 
that  the  early  part  of  1923  will  see  the  industry 
no  only  back  to  normal,  but  going  forward  not 
only  as  the  leading  amusement  of  the  country  but 
a   factor  in  other  channels  of  American   life.

Sees  No  Great  Change 

I  cannot  foresee  any  great  change,  except  a  fur- 
ther stabilization  of  the  merit  system  of  renting 
and  buying  picures,'  as  a  result  of  which  there 
will  be  a  marked  decrease  in  the  number  of  px- 
t.,res   that   are  being   made.  ^l     LICHTMAN. 

Steady  Improvement 

The  film  business  for  1923  should  parallel  the 
trend  of  general  business  conditions  toward  nor- 
malcy. The  sum  total  of  prophesies  in  this  re- 
si>ect  is  that  there  will  be  no  business  boom  but  a 
steady  improvement  that  will  bring  us  up  to  the' 
nn'  nial  mark  and  probably  above  normal  during 
^^^^-  WM.    A.    JOHNSTON. 


Brighter  Than  Ever 

The  outlook  for  1923,  to  my  way  of  see  ng 
things,  should  be  brighter  than  ever  in  the  mo 
tion  picture  industry;  and  the  attendance  in  thea 
ters  this  year  has  shown  such  a  considerable  in- 
crease that  there  is  no  reason  why  this  upwanl 
trend  should  not  continue  in  1923,  especially  in 
view  of  the  facts  that  the  various  labor  situations 
have  been  settled  and  that  going  to  the  movinn 
picture  theaters  has  become  more  or  less  of  a 
necessity   and   is  no    longer   considered   a   luxury.

Excellent 

The  outlook  for  1923  is  indeed  most  excellent.

Handle  Business  for  the  Masses 

As  for  the  outlook  for  1923  I  can  only  repeat 
what  I  have  had  to  say  before  on  this  subject. 
If  we  hold  in  mind  that  this  amusement  of  ours 
was  intended  for  the  masses  and  if  in  consequence 
we  try  to  so  handle  this  amusement  that  it  is  avail- 
able for  the  masses  then  I  shall  not  only  for  1923 
but  for  all  the  years  to  come  look  forward  to 
keeping  this  game  of  ours  in  the  forefront  of  the 
amusement  line.  ROBERT   LIEiiER. 

Hammons'  Serious  Thought 

The  outlook  for  1923  is  bright.  One  of  our 
representatives  recently  toured  the  major  por- 
tion of  the  country  from  coast  to  coast  and  <  very 
where  found  that  the  motion  picture  business  had 
turned  the  corner  and  was  headed  up  the  r^ad  in 
the  direction  of  normal  business.  I  must  <mpha 
size  my  personal  belief  that  exhibitors  evervwhrn 
are  neglecting  a  vital  factor,  whm  the>  fail 
to  sell   their   whole  show. 

One  of  the  greatest  merchandisers  the  country 
remembers  was  Mrashall  Field  of  ChiiaMO  Ht- 
built  a  business  which  has  been  the  mod- 1  o! 
many  other  businesses  in  every  city  of  the  Union 
His  policy  was  to  feature  a  given  article,  but  in 
display  that  article  and  to  talk  about  it  in  his 
newspaper  advertising  only  associated  with  km 
dred  goods. 

For  example,  if  he  were  featuring  a  golf  suit, 
he  also  displayed  and  talked  about  other  golf  ac 
cessories,  such  as  golf  stockings,  golf  balls,  golf 
clubs  and  other  merchandise  which  was  kindred 
to  his  feature. 

Field  well  knew  that  many  people  would  see 
the  golf  suit  but  would  not  be  inerested  because 
they  already  had  golf  suits,  but  the  kindred  mer 
chandise  attracted  them,  and  he  not  only  sold  his 
feature — golf  suits — to  people  who  required  them, 
but  to  those  who  already  had  a  suit  he  sold  other 
merchandise. 

Exhibitors  are  in  exactly  the  same  position.  To 
merchandise  their  box  office  forcefully  they  should 
not  only  talk  about  their  excellent  feature,  but 
they  should  lay  additional  stress  upon  kindred  pic- 
tures, namely,  the  news  reel,  the  scenic  drama,  the 
comedy,  and  other  short  subject  novelties.  Manv 
patrons  may  not  like  the  feature  or  the  star  hu' 
will  enjoy  a  sutKcient  number  of  the  other  offerings 
to  spend  money   at  the   box   office. 

EARL  W.  HAMMONS 
Optimistic 

From  observation  that  I  have  made  I  cer- 
tainly take  a  most  optimistic  view  of  conditions 
for  1923.  Order  is  being  restored  in  industrial 
labor  circles,  the  country  is  generally  coming  back 
to  a  state  of  prosperity,  which,  while  not  as 
great  as  during  war  times,  reflects  the  true  spirit 
of  the  times,  without  any  of  the  inflated  values 
that  as  placed  on  everyth.ng  during  the  war  period.

Factory  System  Pictures  Through 

'i"he  outlook  lor  192,5,  to  iny  mmd,  indicates  that 
the  "factory  system"  of  production  which  now 
weighs  so  heavily  upon  this  nidustry,  will  be 
superseded  by  more  consistent  methods  whereby 
individual  producers  f;  om  various  sources  will  find 
their  way  to  the  tlieater-public  market  on  a  basis 
that    is    absolutely    equitable    to    both   producer   and 


exhibitor. 


W.    W.    HODKINSOX. 


Many  Problems  Yet  to  Solve 

I  believe  that  th.e  year  1923  is  going  to  show 
consideralile  improvement  over  the  last  six 
months  of  this  year.  There  is  a  considerable  por- 
tion of  the  United  States  that  is  still  far  from 
normal  at  the  present  time.  Business  can  still 
not  be  called  good  except  in  spots.  It  is  going 
to  take  another  year  or  year  and  a  half  for 
strictly  agricultural  territories  to  come  back  into 
their  own. 

I  think  the  uncertainty  of  a  very  bad  foreign 
condition  hovering  over  us  will  to  more  or  less 
extent  determine  the  rapidity  with  which  the 
industry  and  agricultural  conditions  come  back  to 
what  we  might  call  a  normal  basis. 

1923  is  going  to  find  us  with  still  many  problems 
to  solve,  and  these  will  not  be  solved  except  by 
closer  relationship  between  all  branches  of  the 
industry — the  elimination  of  dirty  politics,  and  an 
endeavor  to  get  together  on  the  things  that  are 
of  mutual  benefit  or  of  mutual  detriment  to  all 
of  us. 

I  believe  the  thinking  minds  of  the  Industry  are 
headed  in  that  direction  on  both  the  distributor's 
side   and   the  producer's  and  exhibitor's  side. 

Our  progress  as  an  industry  during  the  next 
year  will  be  determined  by  the  earnestness  of  pur- 
pose disidaycd  by  those  who  are  leaders  in  the 
business  as  iar  as  the  Industry  itself  is  concerned 
within  itself.  S.    R.    KEM. 

Unusually    Optimistic 

Never  before  in  the  history  of  motion  pictures 
has  the  industry  stood  on  such  solid  foundation  as 
it  does  today.  That  is  why  I  look  forward  with 
unusual  optimism  to  the  coming  year.  1  said  one 
year  ago  that  the  salvation  ol  the  motion  picture 
itidustry  lay  in  the  making  of  bigger  pictures — 
pictures  bigger  in  theme,  in  handling,  in  cast, 
and  in  drawing  power.  Today  I  repeat  that  as- 
sertion, and  with  even  greater  emphasis  than 
before.  The  public  is  eager  to  see  pictures  of 
this  high  standard  and  will  be  satisfied  with  noth- 
'"g   'ess.  JESSE   L.   LASKY. 

Business  Should  Improve 

According  to  U.  S.  Commerce  reports,  according 
to  Babson's  Statistics,  judged  by  all  barouKUrs, 
business  should  improve  and  a  real  wave  of  pros- 
perity is  due  to  hit  the  country,  provided,  of 
course,  the  European  situation  asserts  itself  in 
a   favorable   or   semi-favorable   light. 

Inasmuch  as  the  picture  industry  is  not  a  basic 
industry,  but  is  one  that  is  affected  by  the  funda- 
mental industries,  the  motion  picture  industry  will 
retiect  the  prosper. ty  that  follows  in  the  wake. 
Car  loadings  l.ave  nearly  doubled,  steel  mills  are

Old  Times  Returning 

We  find  exhibitors  sprucing  up  and  buying  good 
pictures;  we  see  a  return  of  the  old-time  en- 
thusiasm. No  need  to  go  into  a  detailed  analysis 
of  the  financial  condition  of  the  country.  It  is 
generally  conceded  that  the  prosperity  wave  is 
just  starting  to  sweep.  The  old  bugaboo  of  the 
public  losing  its  interest  in  the  motion  picture 
has  been  scouted  by  the  business  of  the  present 
season.  The  country  still  likes  the  screen  and 
i"2.'  will  see  them  back  in  the  theaters  in  full

Couldn't   Be   Better 

The  outlook  for  1923  couldn't  be  better.  For 
one  thing  the  outside  business  outlook  is  bright. 
For  another,  men,  organizations,  and  policies  with- 
in this  business  were  never  grounded  on  more 
solid  foundations,  such  evident  good  faith,  such 
encouraging  ambition  to  really  deliver  the  goods.

Moving  Picture  World. 

From   Chaos   to   Continuity 

A  survey  of  the  motion  picture  industry  during 
the  past  year  will  show  the  readjustment  process 
tliat,  since  the  war,  has  been  necessary  in  every 
line  of  commercial  endeavor.  The  sound  busi- 
ness principles  of  other  industries  are  now  being 
adapted  which  is  working  a  hardship  on  those 
wlio  are  unable  to  stand  the  tempering  process, 
but  is  is  elevating  the  industry  to  a  plane  where 
it  can  rightfully  be  classed  with  the  most  stable, 
most   dignified   industries   of   our   nation. 

The  public  are  clamoring  for  better  pictures. 
The  fact  that  there  is  a  demand  for  these  pictures 
is  a  safe  guarantee  that  the  demand  will  be  met 
by  the  progressive  producer  who,  through  the  co- 
operation of  the  exhibitor  can  now  afford  to 
spend  what  he  thinks  best  on  a  production  with 
the  knowledge  that  if  it  is  good,  it  will  be  assured 
long  runs,  backed  up  by  exploitation  that  will 
warrant  the  expenditure  necessary  for  the  making 
of  the  production. 

1  believe  that  during  the  coming  year  the  pub- 
lic will  respond  only  to  human  stories  cotivincingly 
told.  The  day  of  "trash"  and  of  "stupies"  is  gone 
forever,  just  as  the  days  of  chaotic  conditions  are 
gone. 

Through  the  cooperation  of  organizers  who  have 
been  brought  into  the  industry  from  the  outside, 
we  are  now  whipping  the  industry  into  sane  con- 
dit.ons  that  are  bound  to  retiect  back  with  golden 
rays  into  the  coffers  ol  the  producer,  the  distri- 
butor and  the  exhibitor.

Looks  Better 

It  undoubtedly  looks  better  because  of  better 
business  conditions  generally,  but  we  can  only  cash 
in  on  this  by  giving  the  public  more  real  value, 
not  in  money  spent  on  productions  but  in  a  wiser 
choice  of  what  we  produce.       ASHLEY   MILLER. 

Sees  Bright  Outlook 

The  chap  with  lots  of  money  at  stake  in  any 
business  who  looks  for  anything  other  than  "better 
times  ahead"  comes  pretty  close  to  being  crazy. 
Why  be  licked  before  you  start?  This  is  prob- 
ably the  reason  that  all  statements  as  to  the 
future  are  optimistic. 

Looking  forward  to  another  twelve-month  period 
at  this  particular  time,  however,  those  who  have 
watched  the  rising  and  falling  barometer  in  the 
picture  business  can  pro^'e  quite  conclusively  that 
all  the  dark  clouds  which  have  been  floating  around 
and  threatening  to  break  cannot  help  but  have 
silver  linings. 

iMotion  picture  productions  made  within  the  past 
six  months  have  lieen  so  much  better  than  those 
made  during  any  similar  period  in  the  industry 
before  that  there  is  simply  no  comparison.  The 
Ijopularity  of  the  properly  made  photoplay  has 
never  been  questioned.  This  means  that  the  in- 
dustry as  a  whole  is  bidding  more  strongly  than 
ever  for  public  favor — and  we're  just  plumb  bound 
to  w.n  this  fa\or  to  an  extent  that  has  never 
before   been   eiiual.ed. 

General  business  conditions  have  been  bad  for  a 
long  time.  It's  beui  hard  to  sell  shoes,  hats  and 
collar  buttons — and  quite  naturally  it  has  been 
hard  to  sell  motion  picture  entertainment.  From 
every  corner  ol  the  country  comes  the  positive 
statement  thai  general  business  conditions  are  im- 
proving, not  slowly,  but  rapidly.  We'll  soon  be 
fiack  on  an  even  keel  and  when  we  are,  the 
superior  merit  of  the  product  we  are  turniiig  out  is 
bound  to  put  tlie  motion  picture  business  in  better 
shape  than  it  has  been  at  any  tiine  since  its  in- 
ception. L.   J.    SELZNICK.

Very   Bright 

With  all  sections  of  the  country  making  notable 
strides  in  the  return  to  normal  conditions,  and 
with  the  situation  in  every  line  of  business  strength- 
ening almost  daily,  the  outlook  for  the  picture 
industry  is  brighter  than  at  any  time  since  the 
year  immediately  following  the  Armistice.  Those 
of  us  who  have  knowledge  of  the  plans  of  pro- 
ducers and  of  the  quality  of  productions  being 
projected,  cannot  but  have  confidence  that  the  in- 
dustry will  continue  to  advance  and  to  widen  its 
sphere  of   influence  appreciably. 

Every  promise  is  given  that  the  high  character 
and  substantial  nature  of  the  offerings  that  have 
marked  the  opening  of  the  fall  season  of  1922  will 
be  maintained  in  1923,  and  that  with  the  awaken- 
ed conditions  in  the  agricultural,  commercial  and 
industrial  fields,  we  shall  enjoy  our  full  measure 
of   the  general  prosperity.        ARTHUR    S.    KANE.

Be  Optimistic 

If  the  industry  takes  the  same  medicine  for  1923 
that  it  used  for  1922,  the  outlook  is  going  to  be 
hopeful  and  profitable.  When  we  were  in  the 
tloldrums,  we  took  ourselves  by  the  boot  straps, 
figuratively  speaking,  and  lifted  ourselves  out  by 
the  simple  expedient  of  having  faith  in  ourselves 
an  din  the  mission  of  the  film  in  entertaining  the 
American  people.  We  refused  to  admit  that  times 
were  bad  and,  miraculously  enough,  they  became 
better. 

1923  will  be  much  better  than  1922  if  we  only 
think  it  is  going  to  be  and  plan  for  it.  There 
is  no  reason  in  the  world  why  it  shouldn't  be 
better.  r.   H.    COCHRANE. 


Expects  Many  Good  Pictures 

I  think  that  the  outlook  for  1923  is  unusual,  as 
it  is  my  belief  that  there  will  be  more  really  good 
pictures  made  in  this  year  than  in  any  previous 
year,  and  far  more  pictures  with  real  box-  office 
value.  HARRY    CRANDALL. 

Up  to  the  Industry 

1923  will  be  what  we  make  it.  If  we  show  good 
pictures  the  public  will  come,  if  not  our  business 
will  be  less.  The  greatest  handicap  for  an  ex- 
hibitor is  the  arbitrary  method  of  trade.  Just  as 
soon  as  the  producers  sell  their  pictures  on  the 
merit  and  not  try  to  force  their  pictures  arbitrarily, 
just  as  soon  as  the  exhibitor  can  select  his  own 
pictures  from  day  to  day,  just  as  their  needs  are, 
we  will  get  to  a  better  basis.  If  the  exhibitor  will 
buy  what  he  needs  a  great  number  of  useless  re- 
leases will   go  off  the  market.

Best  Since  War  Record 

The  outlook  for  1923  is  the  best  since  the  end 
of  the  war  era  of  inflation.  The  industry  is  set- 
tling down  into  something  like  real  stabilization. 
Quality  pictures  are  steadily  increasing  in  num- 
ber. Exhibition  methods  are  improving.  There 
is  plenty  of  room  for  growth  in  all  directions,  hut 
the  general  condition  of  the  industry  is  getting 
better,   not   worse.  L.    W.    BOYNTON,

Most  Important  Event  of  Year 

Following  will  be  found  expressions  from  leading  executives  of  the  industry  as  to 
what,  in  their  opinion,  is  the  most  important  event  of  the  year. 

The  large  number  who  express  the  view  that  the  advent  of  Will  Hays  into  the  in- 
dustry was  the  most  important   happening  is  of   interest. 


Without    Doubt — Hays 

Without  a  doubt,  the  most  important  happening 
in  the  motion  picture  industry  during  1922  was 
the  advent  into  the  industry  of  Mr.  Will  H.  Hays. 
Mr.  Hays,  a  man  of  unusual  sincerity,  debated 
long  and  seriously  before  accepting  the  invitation 
to  become  the  President  of  the  Motion  Picture 
Producers  and  Distributors  of  America.  When 
at  length  he  made  his  decision,  that  decision  not 
only  was  a  tribute  to  the  motion  picture  industry, 
but  was  an  avowal  of  Mr.  Hays'  determination 
to  devote  all  of  his  unquestioned  ability  and  his 
remarkable  energy  to  a  cause  which  he  felt  to 
be  worthy  of  his  help. 

Mr.  Hays  is  doing  a  great  good  for  the  motion 
picture  industry.  He  has  the  confidence  of  all 
the  men  and  women  in  that  industry,  just  as  he 
has  the  confidence  of  the  men  and  women  of  the 
entire  nation.  His  alliance  with  the  industry 
is  a  guarantee  of  good  faith  on  the  part  of  the 
producers  and  distributors  of  motion  pictures. 
He  has  courage  and  high  ideals.  The  motion  pic- 
ture industry  has  pledged  him  undivided  support 
in  attaining  those  ideals.  Once  again,  the 
American  public  will  find  that  its  faith  in  this 
man  of  action   has  not   been  misplaced. 

JESSE    L.    LASKY. 

Again   Hays 

In  my  opinion  the  most  important  happening  in 
the  motion  picture  industry  during  1922  was  the 
entrance  of  Will  H.  Hays  into  the  business.  This 
had  a  tendency  to  focus  public  attention  on  the 
motion  picture  industry  and  it  is  now  on  trial 
before  the  public  as  to  what  it  will  actually 
become.  W.   W.   HODKINSON. 


Hays 

In  my  opinion  the  bringing  in  of  Mr.  Will  H. 
Hays  to  head  the  National  organization  was  the 
most  important  thing  that  happened  in  our  In- 
dustry  during    1922. 

The  establishing  of  a  better  relationship  between 
exhibitor  bodies  and  producers  and  distributors, 
which  was  brought  about  by  Mr.  Hays,  was  only 
one   of  the  more   important  steps. 

To  every  thinking  person  in  the  industry,  it 
must  be  apparent,  that  a  tremendous  amount  of 
good  has  been  done  the  Industry  to  give  the  pub- 
lic and  many  unthinking  persons  who  were  work- 
ing against  the  Industry,  a  better  understanding 
of  what  the  motion  picture  really  is ;  what  it 
really  means  in  the  everyday  life  of  a  hundred 
million  Americans;  and,  only  those  who  are 
blinded  by  political  prejudice  or  by  trade  prejudice 
would  refuse  to  admit  that  Mr.  Hays  has  done  a 
tremendous  service  to  every  man  and  woman  who 
is  making  his  or  her  living  out  of  the  Motion 
Picture  Industry.  g     r     KENT. 

Answer  of  Industry  to  Critics 

The  greatest  achievement  of  1922,  in  my  opinion, 
has  been  the  answer  of  the  motion  picture  business 
to  its  critics.  That  answer  has  consisted  in  the 
opening  of  the  season  of  1922-3  with  a  far  greater 
number  of  outstanding  attractions  than  ever  before 
in    our   history. 

Every  year  is,  of  course,  marked  by  its  big 
successes.  Last  year,  for  instance,  saw  the  pro- 
duction of  such  triumphs  as  "Way  Down  East," 
"Over  the  Hill,"  "The  Three  Musketeers,"  "A 
Connecticut  Yankee,"  and  "The  Four  Horsemen 
of  the  Apocalypse,"  to  name  only  a  few. 


yit 


The  point  is  that  the  opening  of  the  present 
season  has  witnessed  the  launching  of  an  over- 
vvhehiiing  number  of  outstanding  features.  Among 
others  tliere  have  been  "Robin  Hood,"  "Blood  and 
Sand,"  "Oliver  Twist,"  "When  Knighthood  Was 
in  Flower,"  "Grandma's  Boy,"  "Manslaughter," 
"A  Tailor-Made  Man,"  "East  is  West."  "The 
Storm,"  "Dr.  Jack,"  and  "The  Prisoner  of 
Zenda."  This  list  is  far  from  complete — there  are 
others  that  merit  mention  in  such  company — but 
it  is  indicative  of  the  consistent  advance  that  is 
being  made. 

Moreover,  the  present  season  has  only  just 
started.  With  sucli  an  array  of  high  class  at- 
tractions to  mark  the  opening,  the  picture  business 
has  met  criticism  with  an  answer  that  is  impres- 
sively convincing.  ARTHUR   S.    KANE.

Public  Opposition  to  Poor  Pictures 

The  nation-wide  strike  of  the  public  against 
unintelligent  pictures  no  matter  what  their  cost. 
It  looks  to  me  like  a  demand  for  ideas,  perhaps 
for   ideals   in   pictures.  ASHLEY    MILLER. 

Hays  and  the  Massachusetts  Result 

Tliere  were  many  important  happenings  in  the 
motion  picture  industry  during  1922,  and  in  trying 
to  think  what  were  the  most  important,  there  are 
two  events  that  stand  out  in  my  mind,  so  that  I 
think  I  must  mention  the  two  rather  than  just 
one. 

First  was  the  entry  of  Mr.  Will  Hays  into  the 
industry,  and  next  was  the  overwhelming  defeat 
of  the  reformers,  or  those  antagonistic  to  our  busi- 
ness, during  the  last  election  ;  I  mean  by  that  the 
defeat  of  Miller  in  New  York  and  the  defeat  by 
popular  vote  of  the  proposed  Censorship  in  Massa- 
cluisetts.  HARRY    CRANDALL. 

The  Golf  Tournament 

When  you  ask,  "What  was  the  most  important 
happening  in  the  motion  picture  industry  during 
1922?"  probably  the  whole  class  will  raise  their 
hands  and  cry,  "Oh  teacher,  I  know — Will  Hays' 
entry  into  the  industry." 

Without  in  any  way  intending  to  disagree  with 
the  otlier  pupils,  I  would  say  tliat  the  formation 
of  the  Motion  Picture  Golf  Association  is  of 
equal  import  IF  all  its  members  will  grasp  its 
full  meaning. 

Golf,  as  an  excuse  to  dodge  a  full  day's  work,  is 
one  thing,  but  the  attributes  of  golf  as  expressed 
by   David  R.  Forgan,  is  a  picture  of  life  at  its  best. 

Read! 

"It  is  a  science — the  study  of  a  lifetime,  in  which 
you  may   exhaust   yourself   but   never   your   subject. 

"It  is  a  test  of  temper,  a  trial  of  honor,  and  a 
revealer   of   character. 

"It  afTords  a  chance  to  play  the  man  and  act 
the  gentleman. 

It  promotes  not  only  physical  health  but  moral 
force." 

Let  these  principles  become  a  tenet  of  faith  for 
the  film  industry,  and  it  could  then  well  afiford  to 
engage  the  balance  of  the  President's  cabinet  as 
General  Ha^s'  associates. 

The  Outlook  for  1923  is  the  entry  of  other  mo- 
tion picture  communities  into  the  Golf  Association. 
CARROLL  H.  DUNNING. 

Nothing  Noticeable 

In  my  opinion  1922  has  not  developed  any  par- 
ticular noticeable  happening  worthy  of  recording. 
Some  things  have  transpired  that  may  be  im- 
portant later   on   if  they  function. 

The  placing  of  Mr.  Hays  as  generalissimo  of  the 
Distributors  and  Producers  is  an  opportunity  to 
bring  about  better  economic  conditions  within  the 
industry  and  a  better  prestige  without. 

As  to  pictures  we  have  had  a  large  quantity 
and  a  small  amount  of  quality.  We  get  about  20 
pictures,    new    pictures    each    week.        It    is    impos- 


sible to  support  them  all  and  quite  as  impossible 
to  know  which  ones  to  support.  We  need  less 
in  number  and  better  pictures.  The  more  pictures 
the  more  difficult  to  select  and  the  greater  the 
rental  to  each  exhibitor.  When  there  is  lots  of 
wheat  the  price  of  wheat  goes  down,  but  when 
there  are  lots  of  pictures  the  price  of  pictures  goes 
up.  Many  pictures  mean  we  must  support  more 
pictures  with  a  less  number  of  theaters.  If  we 
had  good  pictures  and  less  of  them  there  are  more 
returns  both  to  the  film  company  and  to  the 
exhibitor    and    the   rental   price    more    reasonable.

Unification  of   Industry 

The  unification  of  the  industry  from  the  stand- 
point of  good  business  and  from  the  viewpoint 
of  establishing  a  more  wholesome  attitude  on  the 
part  of  the  public  toward  the  industry.  Perhaps 
the  outstanding  production  event  is  the  rise  of 
Harold  Lloyd  as  the  premiere  comedian  on  the 
screen.  ELMER   L.    PEARSON. 

The  Action  Behind  Hays 

In  my  opinion  the  most  important  happening 
in  the  industry  in  1922  was  the  securing  of  Will 
Hays — with  all  that  it  connotes  in  cooperation, 
sincerity  of  purpose,  and  appreciation  of  the 
necessity  of  improving  conditions.  It  is  the  back- 
ground of  the  Hays'  movement — the  action  behind 
the  scenes — that   impress  me. 

ROBERT  E.  WELSH, 
Moving    Picture    World. 

The  Hays  Organization 

Easily  the  most  important  event  of  the  year 
that  has  just  passed — or  of  all  the  years  that  have 
passed — in  the  history  of  the  motion  picture  in- 
dustry has  been  the  launching  of  the  Motion  Pic- 
ture Prod.  &  Dist.  of  America,  Inc.,  under  the 
active  leadership  and  direction  of  Will  H.  Hays. 

For  the  first  time  in  the  history  of  the  industry 
those  whose  interests  have  always  been  crying 
aloud  for  intelligent  help  and  protection  have 
shown  a  disposition  to  think  more  of  the  future 
of  the  industry  as  a  whole  than  of  their  individual 
interests. 

The  stplendid  spirit  back  of  the  Motion  Picture 
Producers  &  Distributors  of  America,  Inc.,  re- 
presents the  greatest  stride  forward  since  the  day 
the  courts  shook  loose  the  death  grip  the  Patents 
Company  was  fastening  upon  the  business  of  en- 
tertaining the  public  through  the  medium  of  the 
photoplay    screen.  l     J.    SELZNICK. 

Sees  Three  Big  Events 

Three  developments  in  the  year  which  has  just 
drawn  to  a  close  make  1922  memorable  to  those 
within  the  motion  picture  industry.  It  saw  the 
Motion  Picture  Producers  and  Distributors  of 
America  come  into  being,  it  saw  censorship  repu- 
diated throughout  the  length  and  breadth  of  the 
land  and  it  saw  the  independent  producers  and 
distributors  advance  to  the  position  of  leadership 
which  is  their  absolute  right  but  to  which  they 
heretofore   had   never   attained. 

The  formation  of  the  organization  which  is  so 
ably  headed  by  that  peerless  executive.  Will  H. 
Hays,  did  much  to  build  for  the  screen  a  strength- 
ened and  renewed  public  confidence.  Mr.  Hays 
has  worked  sincerely,  earnestly  and  intelligently 
for  the  good  of  the  entire  industry.  His  policy 
stands  for  all  that  is  good  in  this  great  business 
of  ours,  regardless  of  whom  it  concerns,  and  my 
company  and  I  will  render  him  every  bit  of  co- 
operation  which  it  is  possible  to  give. 

So  far  as  censorship  is  concerned,  any  com- 
ment from  me  on  its  various  evils  is  unnecessary 
here  and  now.  One  censorship — and  one  alone — 
may  rightfully  be  imposed :  That  is  the  censor- 
ship which  we  ourselves  place  upon  the  work  we 
are  doing.  There  are  undoubtedly  men  who  feel 
not  the  slightest  compunction  about  creating  an 
over-sexed  and  lascivious  picture,  just  as  there 
are  men  who  are  incapable  of  making  anything 
which  is  not  clean  and  beautiful.  Public  opinion — 
that  great  moulder — will  in  time  remove  the  first- 
named    group    and    build    up    the    second.      Censor- 


zn 


ship  could  never  hope  to  discourage  the  makiiiK 
of  unsound  pictures  and  only  serves  as  a  deter- 
rent to  those  men  who  are  capable  of  really  creat- 
ing beautiful  and  artstic   things. 

The  splendid  progress  made  by  the  independents 
may  be  characterized  as  a  perfect  example  of  the 
survival  of  the  fittest.  Independent  production 
and  distribution  are  theoretically  correct  and 
economically  sound.  The  principles  which  govern 
these  two  phases  of  the  indrstry  are  fundamen- 
tally right.  It  was  but  a  quest'on  of  time,  there- 
fore, before  right  would  triumph  and,  to  put  it 
briefly,  that  time  is  now.  Today,  within  the  in- 
dependent ranks,  there  are  to  be  found  the  ablest 
executives,  the  greatest  directors  and  the  most

Hays 

The  entry  of  Will  H.  Hays  into  the  industry 
was,  by  all  odds,  the  most  important  event  in  the 
picture  world  during    1922.

Lack  of  Happennigs 

The  most  important  incident  in  1922  is  the 
absence  of  the  happening  of  anything  actually  im- 
P°''*ant-  ROBERT    W.    PRIEST. 

Selection   of   Hays 

The  selection  of  Will  Hays  to  he  executive 
head  of  the  motion  picture  producers.  For  a  long 
time  the  producers  were  working  at  cross  pur- 
poses, each  one  for  himself,  and  there  was  abso- 
lutely no  co-ordination  of  plans  or  effort.  With 
such  a  capable  man  in  charge  order  has  been 
restored,  the  producers  are  working  for  the  best 
interests  of  all  collectively  instead  of  for  the  in- 
dividual and  the  result  is  that  the  industry  is 
greatly  benefited.  JULES  E.  MASTBAUM. 

The   Acquisition   of    Hays 

The  most  important  happening  in  the  motion

Deflation 


Deflation ;  it  restored  sanity  to  production  cost, 
stimulated  exhibitor  and  producer,  gave  the  pro-

Open  Market 

In  my  opinion  the  most  important  happening  in 
the  industry  during  the  year  1922  is  the  realiza- 
tion of  the  open  market — that  good  pictures  are 
the  only  thing  that  count — that  the  renting  and 
buying  of  pictures  based  on  their  merit  is  the  only 
safe  and  sound  policy  for  anyone  in  this  business 
to  pursue. 

If  this  is  not  thoroughly  realized  in  1922,  I  am 
certa'n  it  will  manifest  itself  even  more  strongly 
in    1923.  AL    LICHTMAN.

I  consider  the  most  important  happening  in  the 
motion  picture  industry  during  1922  to  be  the  ap-

Again  Hays 

In  my  opinion,  the  most  important  happening 
in  the  motion  picture  industry  during  1922  was 
the  election  of  Will  H.  Hays  as  the  head  of  the 
Motion  Picture  Producers  and  Distributors  of 
America,  and  the  methods  taken  to  stabilize  the 
industry  by  the  creation  of  this  office.  This  will 
have  the  effect  of  placing  the  motion  picture  in- 
dustry on  the  same  high  plane  as  the  steel,  oil 
and   other   large,   necessary   industries.

Many  Good  Pictures 

If  you  were  to  ask  me  what  in  my  opinion  was 
the  most  important  happening  in  the  motion  pic- 
ture industry  during  1922  I  would  frankly  say 
that  the  great  number  of  very  good  pictures  that 
the  various  producers  were  able  to  offer  in  this 
period  is  to  me  the  outstanding  accomplishment. 

ROBERT  LIEBER. 

Hays 

I  believe  the  most  important  happening  in  the 
motion  picture  industry  during  1922  was  the  form- 
ing of  the  association  of  Producers  and  Distrib- 
utors under  the  general  leadership  of  Mr.  Will  H. 
Hays,  for  the  common  good  of  the  industry.  This 
association,  by  coordination  of  efforts,  will  speed- 
ily and  effectively  apply  constructive  policies  that 
would  not  be  possible  by  individual  effort,  no 
matter   how    well   directed. 

EARL   W.    HAMMONS. 

The   Release  of  41   Pictures 

The  most  important  happening  in  the  motion 
picture  industry  during  1922  was  the  announce- 
ment by  Famous  Players-Lasky  Corporation  last 
May  of  a  complete  schedule  of  forty-one  pictures 
to  be  released  during  the  six  months  from  August 
1  to  February  1.  For  the  first  time  in  the  history 
of  this  business  exhibitors  were  put  in  a  position 
where  they  were  assured  of  a  continuous  supply 
of  big,  worthwhile  productions  from  an  absolutely 
reliable  source.  This  policy  enabled  exhibitors  to 
lay  out  the  campaign  for  their  theaters  for  the 
first  six  months  of  the  new  season  and,  by  ena- 
bling them  to  make  plans  intelligently,  well  in 
advance,  it  was  a  tremendous  factor  in  bringing 
back  prosperity  to  the  film  industry.  From  the 
hundreds  of  letters  which  exhib'tors  have  written 
me  personally  expressing  their  gratitude  for  our 
action  I  know  positively  that  our  listing  of  forty- 
one  pictures,  with  titles,  stars,  casts,  directors, 
advertising  accessories,  and  release  dates,  all  com- 
plete and  fixed,  marked  a  milestone  in  the  progress 
of  the  motion  picture  industry  which  will  be  appre- 
c  attd   more   as    the   season    unfolds.

What  of  Censorship  ? 


Answers  will  be  found  below  from  many 
portant  question. 

Easy! 

Easy!     Listen  to  WILL  HAYS. 

H.   M.   WARNER. 

Arouse   the   Public 

The  most  effective  way  in  which  to  meet  the 
censorship  situation,  I  beheve,  is  to  maintain  some- 
what of  an  alliance  with  the  newspapers  and 
magazines  of  the  country.  If  we  are  to  be  per- 
mitted to  serve  only  pap,  to  dish  up  a  product 
which  only  the  toothless  portion  of  the  public  is 
able  to  masticate,  it  is  inevitable  that  the  prohibi- 
tion against  substantial  food  eventually  will  extend 
to  the  printed  page,  as  well  as  the  picture.  Real- 
izing this,  the  press,  virtually  in  its  entirety,  is 
with  us  in  our  resistence  to  restrictive  measures. 
We  should  join  forces  with  the  newspapers  and 
magazines  and  see  that  the  public  is  thoroughly 
aroused  to  the  peril  of  the  threat  against  inde- 
pendent thought.  ARTHUR  S.  KANE. 

Let  People  Do  Censoring 

The  ideal  way  is  to  let  the  people  do  their  own 
censoring.  I  have  infinite  faith  in  the  justice  and 
self  sufficiency  of  the  great  American  public. 
The  trouble  with  censorship  is  that  it  tries  to 
impose  an  individual  opinion  upon  the  sovereign 
will  of  the  people.  But  the  fact  remains  that  we 
have  a  number  of  these  imposed  censorships  and 
we  are  threatened  constantly  with  more.  The 
way  to  handle  the  threats  is  best  exemplified  in 
the  sjplendid  way  the  Massachusetts  Censorship 
fight  was  won.  Since  our  eflForts  to  clean  up  our 
own  industry  I  am  of  the  opinion  that  the  existing 
censor  boards  have  had  very  little  reason  for  their 
existence.  In  fact,  some  of  their  decisions  are 
so  hair-splitting  and  their  eliminations  so  ridiculous 
that  one  would  think  that  they  would  realize 
the  uselessness  of  their  continued  existence.  This 
is   too   much   to   hope.  R.    H.    COCHRANE. 

Use  the  Screen  to  Fight 

We  need  sincerity  in  a  real  effort  to  better  pic- 
tures (so  far  it  has  been  mostly  talk)  and  the  in- 
dustry should  wake  up  and  make  aggressive,  act- 
ive use  of  the  screen  to  tell  the  public  that  cen- 
sorship is  im-American,  unconstitutional,  intoler- 
able and  in  practice  a  flat  failure. 

ASHLEY  MILLER. 

Crandall's   Interesting  Ideas 

One  might  say  at  first  thought  that  the  best  way 
to  get  rid  of  Censorship  or  Censorship  petitions 
would  be  by  not  making  the  kind  of  pictures  that 
are  apt  to  bring  on  Censorship  agitation.  How- 
ever, I  personally  have  a  little  doubt  about  this, 
and  feel  that  we  would  have  agitators  for  Censor- 
ship regardless  of  the  kind  of  picture  made,  be- 
cause of  the  positions  Censorship  creates,  and  be- 
cause the  reformers  have  to  have  something  to  do. 
However  the  limination  of  that  class  of  picture  would 
to  an  extent  lessen   their  argument   for   Consorshiji. 

I  believe  that  the  surest  way  to  eliminate  all 
possibility  of  Censorship  is  to  educate  the  public 
as  to  just  what  the  motion  picture  industry  really 
means  to  them,  the  handicaps  it  has  had  to  over- 
come the  wonderful  strides  it  las  made  in  the  last 
two  or  three  years,  its  educational  as  well  as 
entertainment  value,  and  its  benefit  to  the  millions 
who  would  be  unable  to  gain  admission  to  any 
other  form  of  amusement  on  account  of  the  prices. 

I  think  the  best  way  to  educate  the  public  to 
these  things  is  to  do  as  we  are  doing  in  Washing- 
ton, by  the  maintenance  of  a  Public  Service  and 
Educational  Department.  To  my  mind,  it  would 
be  a  wonderful  thing  if  each  of  the  larger  exhib- 
itors, especially  those  controlling  chains  of  theaters, 
would  install  such  a  Department,  in  each  case 
putting  a  woman  of  quite  some  prominence  in  that 
particular  territory  in  charge.  She  must  know 
something  of  the  picture  business,  and  what  she 
does  not  know,  the  exhibitor  must  teach  her. 
She   must   be   able    to    make    public    speeches    at    all 


important  men  of  the  indu.stry   to  this  im- 

women's  organizations,  to  have  an  Advisory  Com- 
mittee, consisting  of  people  at  the  head  of  such 
organizations  as  the  Boy  Scouts,  Girl  Scouts, 
Camp  Fire  Girls,  Daughters  of  American  Revolu- 
tion, and  the  numerous  other  organizations  for 
women  and  children.  She  must  have  a  pleasing 
personality,  and  must  be  convincing  in  her  talks. 

It  must  also  be  made  plain  that  this  Advisory 
Board  is  in  no  sense  of  the  word  a  Censor  of 
motion  pictures,  but  rather,  in  advisory  capacity, 
to  make  suggestions,  etc.,  or  as  our  Mrs.  Locher 
always  puts  it  in  her  little  talks,  "constructive 
criticism." 

In  addition  to  the  above,  the  exhibitor  conduct- 
ing such  a  Department  as  above  suggested  should 
have  special  Children's  Matinees  on  Saturday 
morning  or  early  afternoon,  and  special  children's 
pictures.  This  would  have  a  tendency  to  satisfy 
the  mothers,  with  the  knowledge  that  their  child- 
ren could  attend  a  special  performance  at  which 
would  be  shown  pictures  that  would  in  no  way  be 
offensive  for  children  but  would  have  wonderful 
entertainment  value.  In  fact,  this  Department  will 
suggest,  as  it  works  along,  many  things  that  will 
have  a  tendency  to  bring  the  public  closer  in  touch 
with  the  motion  picture  industry — and  when  Cen- 
sorship is  suggested  in  the  different  sections,  the 
various  women's  organizations  allied  with  these 
Public  Service  and  Educational  Departments  will 
he  in  a  position  to  go  forward  and  speak  against 
Censorship — and  as  disinterested  part  es.  Oppos  - 
tion  to  Censorship  from  such  a  source  would  of 
course  have  vastly  more  weight  than  froin  the  pic- 
ture  people   themselves. 

I  think  a  drive  of  this  kind  is  absolutely  neces- 
sary for  the  future  of  our  business,  and  the  quicker 
we  all  realize  it,  the  better,  for  it  seems  to  me 
that  we  are  not  properly  organized  in  all  of  these 
lines.  Certainly  we  are  not  organized  in  com- 
parison with  the  reformers.  If  there  were  forty 
exhibitors  in  America  with  organizations  similar  to 
that  mentioned  in  the  forego  ng,  then  whenever 
there  is  a  big  meeting,  such  as  that  of  the  General 
Federation  of  Women's  Clubs,  a  meeting  that  does 
much  to  mold  public  opinion,  there  would  be  at 
least  ten  delegates  among  our  members  that  would 
be  on  the  floor  to  protest  against  that  organization, 
or  other  similar  organizations,  gong  on  record  for 
Censorship. 

Unfortunately,  in  the  past  it  has  not  been  a  hard 
thing  to  get  organizations  to  go  on  record  for 
Censorship,  for  the  very  reason  that  almost  in- 
variably there  was  no  one  there  to  properly 
oppose  it — in  fact  probably  most  of  the  time  no 
one  even  knew  the  question  would  be  brought  up 
but  the  reformers,  and  they  are  alert  at  every 
gathering,  and  always  get  in  their  work. 

With  iPublic  Service  and  Educational  Depart- 
ments in  all  sections,  the  heads  of  these  Depart- 
ments, either  directly  or  through  affiliations,  could 
arrange  for  representation  at  all  meetings  of  all 
organizations,  regardless  of  whether  Censorship  was 
scheduled  to  be  brought  up  or  not. 

In  closing,  I  wish  to  say  agan  that  the  best  vvay 
to  eliminate  Censorship  is  through  cooperation 
with  the  pubhc.  HARRY   CRANDALL. 

Closer  Relationships 

I  believe  much  good  would  come  from  a  closer 
relationship  between  the  exhibitor,  the  minister, 
and  the  men's  clubs  of  each  community. 

Most  ministers  are  not  such  bad  fellows,  and 
neither  are  most  e.xhibitors,  nor  most  inen,  but 
the  trouble  is  they  never  get  together  in  order 
to   find  that   fact   out. 

Let  each  exhibitor  join  the  men's  club  of  a  good 
church  or  churches  in  his  community,  if  he  can 
stand  it,  and  let  each  minister  go  to  lunch  occa- 
sionally with  an  exhibitor,  if  the  exhibitor  will 
pay  for  it,  and  I  think  they  will  solve  their  own 
problem,  without  the  aid  of  a  strange  censorship 
board  who  doesn't  know  "wltat  all  the  shootin's 
for."  CARROLL  H.   DUNNING.

Get  Public  Confidence 

The  best  and  only  way  to  meet  the  question  of 
censorship  is  to  take  the  public  in  your  confidence, 
just  as  we  bave  in  Indiana  for  many  years.  Just 
as  my  good  protege  Charles  Pettijohn  has  done 
recently  in  Massachusetts.  We  are  going  into 
politics,  not  into  the  partisan  politics,  never,  but 
into  particular  politics,  yes.  We  can't  evade  it. 
We  are  forced  into  it  by  our  enemies.  We  must 
use  our  screen  to  select  our  friends  and  defeat  our 
enemies.  I  do  not  like  to  admit  this,  but  since  it 
is  necessary  I  am  in  favor  of  doing  it  with  every 
bit  of  strength  we  have.  In  a  general  way  show- 
manship will  count  more  every  day.  Anyone  can 
produce,  distribute  and  exhibit  pictures,  but  it  takes 
a  highly  trained  special  training  in  a  particular 
case  to  make  it  pay.  FRANK  J.  REMBUSCH. 

Let  Public  Opinion  Be  the  Answer 

Censorship  has  never  bothered  me  much.  I 
don't  like  folks  fussing  around  trying  to  tell  me 
how  to  run  my  business — and  I'm  pretty  sure  that 
the  general  public  don't  like  this  sort  of  thing 
any  better  than  I  do.  I'm  for  taking  the  line  of 
least  resistance.  Let's  make  pictures  in  as  strict 
conformity  to  the  requirements  of  constituted 
authority  as  we  can — and  let  public  opinion  take 
care  of  the  long  haired  gentlemen  and  short-haired 
ladies  who  insist  upon  pressing  the  most  popular 
institution  ever  developed  in  this  or  any  other 
country   too  hard.  L.  J.   SELZNICK. 

Making    the    Public    Partners 

Gaining  and  maintaining  a  real  partnership  with 
the  public  is  the  best  way  to  combat  censorship. 
Until  that  partnership  has  had  time  to  be  fully 
established,  the  industry  should  fight  with  all  its 
strength  every  move  for  censorship  and  every 
piece  of  proposed  legislation  hostile  to  its  interests. 
L.  W.  BOYNTON, 
Exhibitors    Trade    Review. 

Eastman  on  Censorship 

The  censorship  of  motion  pictures  demanded  in 
some  direction  is  all  wrong.  If  the  product 
emanating  from  the  producing  studios  needs  re- 
formation that  reformation  should  be  accomplished 
at  the  source,  not  by  subsequent  mutilation  of  the 
film   nor   by    damming   the   flow    of    the    industry. 

GEORGE    EASTMAN. 

Educate  the  People 

Censorship?  The  way  to  fight  it  is  the  same 
that  should  be  used  against  every  law  that  is  due 
solely  to  the  public's  misconception  of  facts. 
Educating  the  American  people ;  showing  them 
the  pernicious  principle  and  harmful  results  of 
censorship  is  the  surest  method  of  repeal.  Edu- 
cation by  means  of  merciless  publicity ;  education 
by  showing  only  the  type  of  pictures  that  make 
the  censors  appear  unnecessary.  The  censorship 
problems  can  be  met  by  publicity  that  shows  the 
injustice  of  censorship  and  by  pictures  that  show 
the   uselessness   of   it.  J.    I.    SCHNITZER. 

Make  Only  the  Best  Pictures 

The  best  way  to  meet  the  problem  of  censor- 
ship is  to  continue  to  make  the  sort  of  product 
that  we  have  had  since  September  of  this  year. 
Then,  having  done  that,  to  seek,  wherever  the 
issue  is  raised,  to  have  it  answered  by  the  votes 
of  the  people.  The  mighty  voice  of  one  referen- 
dum outdoes  twenty  victories  won  in  legislative 
corridors,  back  rooms  and  alleys.  Massachusetts 
tells  the  story.  But  Massachusetts  also  points  the 
moral — Let    us    keep    the    faith  ! 

ROBERT    E.    WELSH, 
Moving  Picture  World. 

Take   Active,    Not   Passive,   Attitude 

Not  by  a  passive  attitude,  but  by  an  active, 
energetic  campaign  with  the  view  in  mind  to  crys- 
talizing  the  feelings  and  sentiments  of  the  country 
against  the  principle  of  censorship  in  any  and 
every  one  of  its  forms. 

The  use  of  the  screen  in  the  country  should  be 
our  most  effective  weapon.  The  urging  of  a  Fed- 
eral amendment  including  freedom  of  the  screen  in 
the  same  category,  as  freedom  of  the  press  and 
pulpit.  If  only  for  propaganda  purposes,  this 
should  open  the  eyes  of  the  public  to  a  condition 
which  perhaps  they  never  knew  existed.     Of  course, 


maintaining   a    high    standard    of   production    excel- 
lence  will   go  a   long  way   in   preventative  measures 
but    the   powers   of   industry    should   be   brought    to 
bear   in  enlightening  the  people   and   touching   their 
feelings   and   so   stimulating    them    to   action. 

ELMER  L.  PEARSON. 

Stifling    Expression   of    Our    Richest 
Imagination 

In  looking  over  the  events  of  1922,  censorship 
stands  out  as  the  most  important  happening  in 
the  rnotion  picture  industry.  It  is  a  vital  thing, 
both  in  regards  to  the  further  artistic  development 
of  the  photoplay  and  the  commercial  stability  of 
motion  pictures.  If  we  consider  the  film  industry 
from  the  viewpoint  of  ordinary  business,  censor- 
ship is  a  menace,  and  if  we  consider  the  photoplay 
from  the  basis  of  an  art,  then  censorship  becomes 
a    crime. 

The  very  thought  that  a  legal  body  has  power 
to  decide  what  the  public  shall  or  shall  not  see, 
is  certain  to  have  a  restrictive  influence  upon  the 
efforts  of  producers,  directors,  scenarists  and  play- 
ers. Instead  of  having  before  them  only  the  pur- 
pose of  the  author,  they  have  also  the  subcon- 
scious thought  of  the  censor's  possible  action. 
The  inevitable  result  of  such  a  dual  influence  will 
be  that  the  creators  of  pictures  will  be  driven 
into  a  routine,  the  one  which  will  be  likely  to 
pass  the  censors.  The  censorship  in  this  wav  cre- 
ates a  spirit  of  timidity  which  will,  if  it  continues 
mdefinitely,  stifle  a  full  and  wholesome  expression 
of  the  nation's  richest  imaginations. 

The  outlook  for  the  coming  year  will  be  a  grow- 
ing consciousness  that  censorship  cannot  aid  the 
motion  picture  industry — that  the  entire  idea  of 
censorship  is  based  upon  the  premise  of  "thou  shalt 
not"  and  not  upon  "thou  shalt."  It  is  in  this 
very  position — this  lack  of  constructive  influence — 
that  censorship  is  weakest. 

But  I  am  always  optimistic.  I  believe  that  con- 
certed action  by  producers  and  exhibitors  in  en- 
hghtenmg  the  public  as  to  how  censorship  is 
working  out — how  much  it  has  destroyed  and  how 
much  it  contributed — will  achieve  the  results  de- 
sired by  all  who  still  believe  that  an  art  must 
be  unrestricted  in  its  expression  if  it  is  to  fully 
develop.      "Veribus    Unitis."

Up   to   the   Picture 

_  The  problem  of  censorship  is  one  of  the  greatest 
importance.  It  can  only  be  met  by  the  producers 
themselves  who  must  produce  pictures  that  will 
stand  the  gafif  of  the  censors.  It  can  be  done 
as  has  been  illustrated  in  several  instances  of  new 
pictures  which  have  been  successful  without  hav- 
ing anything  in  them  that  would  cause  the  cen- 
sors to  use  their  authority.  I  believe  that  the 
pictures  are  getting  better  and  better  and  will 
continue  to  improve  and  thus  the  whole  problem 
of   censorship   will   be   solved

Produce  entertaining  pictures  that  are  above 
censorship.  ROBERT   W.    PRIEST. 

Remove  the   Cause 

The  adjustment  of  the  business,  which  is  in- 
evitable, is  the  best  and  only  way  of  meeting  the 
problem  of  censorship  as  it  is  the  straining  of  the 
factory  producers  for  sensationalism,  in  lieu  of 
quality,  which  would  be  developed  by  independent 
effort,  that  is  responsible  for  censorship.  Only  by 
removing  the  cause  will  the  effect  be  permanently 
destroyed.  W.    W.    HODKINSON. 

Present  Case  Properly  to  the  People 

Censorship  in  my  mind  can  never  be  solved  ex- 
cept thru  an  intelligent  education  of  the  people 
and  an  intelligent  presentation  of  the  case  of  the 
motion  picture  before  the  bar  of  the  people. 

It  can  never  be  handled  by  trying  to  change 
the  minds  of  politicians,  because  politicians  have 
too  much  to  gain  by  fostering  censorship  against 
us.  When  the  motion  picture  industry  awakens 
to  a  realization  of  its  own  strength  properly  di- 
rected ;  when  it  sets  its  house  in  order  so  that  it  is 
deserving  of  the  100  per  cent  confidence  of  the 
American   people,   it   can   then   go   before   the  public 


380 


with  a  case  that  will  ahsolutely  win,  because 
fumlameiitally  the  American  people  are  against 
censorship. 

Censorship  must  be  beaten  before  it  ever  goes 
to  the  legislature  because  we  know  that  inany  times 
the  measures  that  are  passed  by  both  legislature 
and  Congress  do  not  always  express  the  will  of 
the    majority.  S.    R.    KENT. 

Clean  Pictures 

Clean  pictures  and  an  unrelenting  national 
publicity  campaign,  driving  home  the  many  obvious 
restrictions  and  handicaps  which  censorship  im- 
poses on  the  most  important  and  powerful  force 
the  world  has  known  for  entertainment  and  edu- 
cation, are  two  certain  ways  for  combating  the 
problem   of   censorship.  J.    D.    WILLIAMS. 

Inherent  Enemies  Passing 

Motion  pictures  represent  the  most  forceful 
medium  man  has  yet  created  with  which  to  ex- 
press himself.  So  powerful  an  organ  must 
necessarily  frighten  the  timid  and  confuse  the 
superficial.  The  generation  of  inherent  enemies 
is  passing.  Tomorrow's  generation  will  accept 
motion  pictures  with  the  dignity  and  importance 
and  value  they  deserve.  As  they  exhaust  this 
subject,  the  ranters  and  the  professionals  will 
find  some  new  target  to  occupy  their  wrath. 
Motion    pictures    will    proceed.

Hays 

"What,    in    your    opinion,    is    the    best    way    to 
meet  the  problem  of  censorship?" 
Answer:— "WILL    HAYS." 

CARL    LAEMMLE 

Make  Clean  Pictures 

The  best  way  to  meet  the  problem  of  censor- 
ship is  to  make  pictures  that  will  not  call  for 
criticism.  I  do  not  believe  it  is  necessary  for 
producers  to  resort  to  risque  situations  and  sex 
plays     to     furnish     good     entertainment.  I     feel 

that  good  clean  plays  will  bring  proper  results 
at  the  box  office  at  all  times.  If  we  are  going 
to  have  censorship,  I  am  in  favor  of  Federal 
censorship.  JAMES   R.    GRAINGER. 

Local  Understanding 

With  reference  to  censorship  it  is  necessary, 
of  course,  to  meet  energetically  the  various  legis- 
lative situations  which  are  imminent,  and  which 
will  also  arise  from  time  to  time  in  certain 
states.  Fundamentally,  however,  the  one  sure 
cure  for  censorship  is  local  understanding, 
sympathy  and  cooperation,  everywhere,  between 
the  picture  theater  on  one  hand  and  the  school, 
church  and  civic  forces.  In  this  respect  the 
National  Board  of  Review  and  other  agencies 
are  doing  splendid  work.  Mr.  Hays'  clear  con- 
ception of  the  motion  picture  as  a  community 
entertainment  and  force  is  the  correct  one,  and, 
if  supported  by  the  industry  will  eventually  make 
censorship    a    back    number. 

WM.  A.  JOHNSTON. 

By  Referendum 

The  best  way  to  combat  the  censorship  is  by 
a  referendum  of  the  voters  as  to  what  should 
or  should  not  be  censored.  The  industry  should 
work  towards  the  passing  of  a  law  stating  clearly 
what  is  or  is  not  censorable  in  a  motion  picture 
which  will  mean  a  uniform  censoring  of  pictures 
and  not  a  censoring  according  to  the  various 
personal  convictions  of  the  so-called  censors  or 
people  who  are  put  in  the  position  of  censors  for 
the  judging  of  what  they  think  is  good  or  not 
good  for  the  public.  If  a  law  were  passed  to 
the  effect  that  the  only  films  which  could  be 
censored  are  those  of  obscene  character  or  a 
like  nature,  the  law  could  be  applied  to  all 
offenders.  Otherwise  there  is  nothing  shown  in 
films  that  is  not  repeatedly  printed  in  newspapers 
and  about  which  people  read  daily,  such  as  mur- 
ders, masked  riders,  etc.,  which  censors  are  now 
cutting  out.  Unless  a  law  is  passed  stating  ex- 
actly what  is  censorable,  the  evils  and  damages 
caused  by  censorship  wil  never  be  overcome  if 
left    to    the    arbitrary    decisions    of    whoever    may 


be  at  the  head  of  the  censor  bureau.  When  a 
producer  knows  what  the  law  is,  there  will 
then   be   no   need   for   censors. 

BEN    BLUMENTHAL. 

Give  No  Cause 

In  my  opinion,  the  best  way  to  meet  the 
problem  of  censorship,  is — to  give  them  no  cause 
to   censor.  ROTHAFEL. 

The  Right  Kind  of  Pictures 

The  first  and  most  important  step  in  meeting 
this  problem  is  to  produce  pictures  so  splendid  and 
so  clean  that  intelligent  people  will  realize  that 
censorship  in  unnecessary  and  undesirable.  This 
step    the    motion    picture    industry    has    taken. 

The  second  step  is  to  see,  if  possible,  that  the 
public  places  in  us  the  confidence  I  believe  we 
have  earned,  by  showing  our  determination  to 
make  inotion  pictures  without  objectionable  feat- 
ures. In  doing  so,  we  must  counteract  the  op- 
position of  professional  reformers  who  refuse  to 
see  the  good  in  motion  pictures  and  who  bitterly 
fight  the  photoplay  art  for  selfish  reasons  and 
personal    gain. 

The  American  public  is  basically  opposed  to  the 
very  thought  of  censorship — of  speech,  of  press, 
of  screen.  Censorship  is  a  problem,  largely  be- 
cause there  is  not  a  proper  understanding  of 
what  we  in  the  industry  are  doing  and  hope  to  do. 
Once  there  is  this  proper  understanding,  I  believe 
censorship  will  no  longer  he  a  problem.  Today 
it  menaces  this  art  and  industry,  but  I  feel  cer- 
tain that  the  day  of  intelligent  understanding  is 
near  and  when  that  day  arrives,  the  menace  of 
censorship    will   have    disappeared. 

JESSE    L.    LASKY. 

Use  Educational  Methods 

My  thoughts  on  censorship  are  that  this  evil 
can  best  be  combatted  by  educational  methods. 
Our  friend.  Will  Hays,  and  his  organization 
are  doing  much  in  this  line,  and  whenever  in 
my  own  state  the  subject  of  censorship  has  sprung 
up  in  the  legislature  my  efforts  have  been  directed 
towards  acquainting  the  legislators  with  the 
business  itself,  have  shown  them  picture  after 
picture,  and  it  is  our  own  pictures  that  are  going 
to    break    down    censorship. 

ROBERT    LIE  BE  R. 

Use  Advertising  Means 

The  best  way  to  fight  censorship,  in  my  opinion, 
is  to  attack   the  general  public   in   two   ways. 

First — By  furnishing  exhibitors  throughout  the 
United  States  with  material  such  as  slides  and 
trailers  attracively  done;  these  accessories  to  tell 
the  public  in  as  many  conceivable  ways  as  pos- 
sible the  good  things  about  the  industry ;  the 
number  of  people  employed,  the  civic  value,  and 
every    other   attractive    feature. 

Second — By  use  of  paid  advertising  space  in 
large  national  publications  and  in  daily  news- 
papers, to  carry  on  a  constructive  campaign 
direct  to  the  public  in  the  interest  of  motion  pic- 
tures. Such  a  campaign  has  been  carried  on 
for  years  with  great  success  by  railroads,  allied 
lumber  concerns,  allied  brick  manufacturers,  and 
similar  efforts.  The  industry  has  been  hampered 
because  newspaper  editors  are  disinclined  to  as- 
sist the  industry.  This  is  due  to  the  fact  that 
newspaper  publishers  have  the  erroneous  idea 
that  the  industry  is  not  an  advertiser.  All  pub- 
licity efforts  tending  to  change  editorial  opinions 
will  fail  because  publishers  naturally  believe  that 
this  propaganda  is  a  matter  for  paid  advertising, 
and  also  because  the  average  newspaper  pub- 
lisher receives  daily,  tons  of  material  which  ask 
for    free    space    in    his    paper. 

By  buying  a  moderate  amount  of  paid  space  and 
the  continual  pounding  of  a  constructive  message 
to  the  public,  I  believe  that  the  editorial  opiniotis 
of  the  newspapers  will  change  promptly  and  for 
the  better.  Very  sincerely  yours, 

E.    W.    HAMMONS, 

l.lake  Wholesome  Pictures 

The  best  way  to  meet  the  problem  of  censor- 
ship is  to  continue  making  the  same  type  of 
wholesome  and  inspiring  entertainment  which  has 
characterized  most  of  the  productions  released 
this    season.      By    doing    this,    and    continuing    our 


381 


efforts  to  educate  the  public  to  a  realization  of 
our  problems  and  achievements,  we  shall  be  able 
to  -^ut  the  ground  away  from  beneath  the  feet 
of  the  few  fanatics  who  are  fomenting  the  agita- 
tion for  political  control  of  the  screen.  Splendid 
work  along  this  line  has  been  done  by  Mr.  Will 
H.  Hays,  who  has  been  eminently  successful 
in  pointing  out  to  the  leaders  of  the  public 
opinion  the  real  work  which  the  screen  is  doing, 
and  the  vital  achievements  of  motion  pictures 
and  their  wholesome  influence  on  American  life. 
In  Mr.  Hays'  efforts  I  bespeak  the  cooperation 
of  everybody  who  has  a  welfare  of  the  picture 
industry  at  heart.  He  still  has  many  problems 
to  solve,  but  with  the  zealous  support  of  the 
entire  industry,  1  am  sure  that  he  will  lead  us 
to  that  position  in  public  confidence  and  esteem 
which    we   deserve.  ADOLPH    ZUKOR. 

Stop  Apologizing 

I  would  say,  first  remove  the  cause ;  second 
stop  apologizing  and  defending ;  third  continue 
an  aggressive  offensive  work  to  the  end  that 
the  people  in  every  State  in  the  Nation  may 
realize  that  much  piore  is  involved  in  censorship 
than  the  mere  cuts  and  eliminations  in  motion 
pictures. 

They  will  always  give  us  a  fight  on  censorship 
of  motion  pictures,  but  I  do  not  believe  the 
people  m  a  single  State  in  America  would  favor 
"censorship."  C.   C.   PETTIJOHN. 

Bigger  Men 

Bigger    men    to    head    the    industry.

Make  Clean  Pictures 

Make  clean  pictures  and  hang  to  the  nearest 
apple  tree  any  man  who  attempts  to  put  a  dirty

Have  Sound   Organization 

In  my  opinion  the  best  way  to  meet  the 
problem  of  censorship  is  through  a  sound  organi- 
zation of  producers,  distributors  and  exhibitors, 
all  united  in  one  gigantic  effort  to  combat  this 
evil.  This  is  the  first  step  in  my  opinion.  Censor- 
-,'iin  will  never  he  surmcunted.  unless  one  solid 
organization  including  all  factors  in  this  industry 
s  created,  and  that  organization  work  intelligently 
for  the  good  of  the  industry  as  a  whole  and 
not  lor  the  special  benefit  of  any  one  factor. 
AL   LICHTMAN. 


Warrens  Interesting  Views 

Widespread   vs.    Restricted    Distribution 

The  decision  of  a  few  distributors  to  play  their 
pictures  generally  and  universally  for  widespread 
distribution  everywhere  as  against  an  old  and 
unsound  policy  of  making  certain  restricted  first 
run  houses  (controlled  by  rival  distributing- 
producing  concerns)  even  stronger  by  endeavor- 
ing to  get  first  runs  in  places  where  the  doors  are 
virtually  closed  except  to  the  owner's  own  pic- 
tures. There  are  17,000  theaters  in  the  United 
States  and  about  300  so-called  first  runs  are  but 
a  small  percentage  of  the  whole.  For  four  years 
in  print  I  have  maintained  this  and  proved  it  in 
actual  operation.  To  see  such  men,  older  in 
film  business  experience,  as  Messrs.  Laemmle  and 
Hodkinson  now  sustain  this  opinion  is  reassuring. 
As  a  matter  of  fact  I  practiced  this  in  the  Hod- 
kinson organization  in  1919  and  had  done  it  even 
earlier  in  Goldwyn.  Fourteen  distributors  focus- 
sing upon  my  friend  Abe  Blank  in  Des  Moines 
(for  e-xample),  have  made  him  stronger  than  if 
half  the  number  had  played  and  encouraged  a 
healthy  competition  even  thotigh  small.  And  to 
prove  the  point  (in  Des  Moines)  where  I  have 
often  played  Blank,  I  have  played  A.  H.  Van  Dyke 
in  a  "store  show"  and  taken  out  (after  advertising 
and  exploitation  deductions)  from  $1,100.00  to 
$1,400,000,   where   Blank's  top   offer   was   $400. 

As  to  the   Outlook 

To  my  mind  the  1923  outlook  is  that  several 
thousand  exhibitors  are  going  to  lessen  their  sup- 
port of  the  "trust"  concerns  as  a  means  of  keep- 
ing their  theaters  in  business.  Exhibitors  are  now 
paying  too  much  for  producer  "reputations,"  and 
in    order    to    do    this    they    are    unintentionally    de- 


frauding distributors  much  more  friendly  to  them 
out  of  fair  rentals  for  equally  good  and  often 
much   better   pictures. 

Use  Intelligent  Cooperation 
By  intelligent  ridicule,  by  vigorous,  heated, 
nasty  opposition  and  by  a  degree  of  organization 
that  cannot  be  accomplished  until  all  forces  in 
this  industry  at  least  partially  stop  regardmg  all 
other  forces  as  cvooked,  venal  and  unscrupulous. 
I  repeat  what  I  have  said  for  years  that  some 
day  there  is  going  to  be  an  overturn  that  will- 
change  the  whole  tone  of  the  motion  picture 
industry.  p     g     WARREN.

Unusual   Use   for   Pictures 

In  an  address  at  Rochester,  New  York,  Will 
H.   Hays  said  : 

"As  an  example  of  the  possibilities  of  the  motion 
picture  as  an  agency  for  peace  let  me  cite  a  situa- 
tion that  developed  in  the  late  World  War.  I  am 
told  that  there  were  thirteen  tribes  in  Morocco 
under  French  rule  from  which  the  French  Govern- 
ment wished  to  draft  an  organization  of  fighting 
men.  It  proved  utterly  impossible  because  these 
tribes  were  constantly  engaged  in  feuds  among 
themselves  and  could  not  be  brought  in  contact 
without  a  pitched  battle.  The  French  made  pic- 
tures of  each  group  and  circulated  them  among 
the  entire  thirteen  tribes.  The  result  was  that 
these  men  saw  each  other  playing  at  the  same 
games  and  following  the  same  daily  routine  and 
observing  the  same  customs  until  finally  they  felt 
acquainted  and  friendly.  Eligible  men  from  the 
entire  thirteen  tribes  were  recruited  in  one  division 
and  fought  side  by  side  throughout  the  war.  At 
its  conclusion  they  settled  down  peacefully  to- 
gether and  today  they  are  living  in  perfect  amity 
under  French  rule." 


Cinema    Club    Report 

Report  made  by  the  Cinema  Club  of  the  motion

fects being  studied. 

Union  Theater — Four  young  people  asked  to 
leave  because  inattentive. 

Terminal  (downtown) — Four  girls  attending 
show  at  midnight. 

The  report  concludes:  From  this  general  study 
of  the  character  of  motion  picture  films  shown  in 
Cleveland  and  Northern  Ohio  it  will  be  seen  that 
they  are  on  the  whole,  good  and  that  conditions 
are  improving.  There  is  evidence  of  effort  on  the 
part  of  the  exhibitor  to  attract  the  public  with 
long  programs,  introducing  other  forms  of  enter- 
tainment in  addition  to  films,  and  a  somewhat  in- 
creased efifort  to  attract  children  through  con- 
tests, prizes,  etc.,  all  of  which,  it  would  appear, 
is   due  to   the  unusual  economic   conditions. 

The  novelty  of  the  screen  having  passed,  there 
is  evidence  that  the  public  of  Cleveland  and  North- 
ern Ohio  are  becoming  educated,  d  scerning,  pick- 
ing and  choosing  their  entertainment  with  greater 
care — becoming  more  critical.  The  makers  of  pic- 
tures are  recognizing  this  condition,  generally,  as 
evidenced  by  the  employment  of  the  best  story 
writers  of  the  country,  and  furnishing  ample  funds 
for  the  use  of  skillful  directors  in  securing  the 
highest  artistic  results.  Thus  we  seem  to  have  a 
healthy  all-around  growth  of  the  maker,  the  ex- 
hibitor and  the  public.

THE    BETTER    FILMS    MOVE- 
MENT 

Several  important  conclusions  were  developed 
at  the  Southeastern  Conference  for  Better  Films 
in  Atlanta  on  April  28.  The  250  delegates  from 
seven  Southern  states  brought  into  being  the 
first  inter-state  convention  of  the  public  as  the 
persons  most  vitally  interested  in  motion  pic- 
ture progress.  Heretofore  the  impression  has 
been  given  that  the  motion  picture  industry — • 
producers,  distributors  or  exhibitors — was  the 
group  most  vitally  concerned.  If  the  harmony, 
moderation,  interest  and  intelligence  manifested 
by  the  delegates  are  symbolic,  we  may  expect 
the  public  to  play  an  increasing  part  in  devel- 
oping the  entertainment  and  cultural  values  of 
motion    pictures. 

Here  are  the  conclusions  which  appeared  to 
be  accepted  by  the  representatives  for  this  sec- 
tion of  the  country: — 

1.  A  real  cooperation  of  the  public,  the  ex- 
hibitor and  the  exchange  is  possible  in  motion 
picture  exhibitions.  Vision  is  required  of  each. 
In  the  South  these  three  groups  are  sincerely 
and    effectively    working    together. 

2.  With  the  exception  of  those  attending 
the  larger  downtown  theatres,  the  audiences  of 
town,  village  and  neighborhood  houses  want, 
principally,   family   pictures. 

3.  Thoroughly  representative  and  tolerant 
better  films  committees  are  helpful  in  develop- 
ing support  for  better  pictures;  but  the  exhibi- 
tor is   the  expert  and  is   in  control. 

4.  The  monthly  photoplay  guides  and  other 
definite  information  about  plays  given  in  ad- 
vance in  newspapers,  schools,  clubs,  etc.,  are 
important  in  arousing  the  public  and  giving 
them  the   facts   about   theatrical  performances. 

5.  The  aim  of  better  films  work  is  entertain- 
ment,  not   uplift,   in   the   theatres. 

6.  It  is  questionable  to  show  pictures  regu- 
larly to  little  children.  The  audience  of  young 
people  to  be  helped  with  special  performances 
is  the  adolescent  group  between  16  and  11 
years. 

7.  In  all  communities  down  to  the  village,  it 
is  possible  to  have  "family  nights"  in  the  the- 
atres. In  the  smaller  towns  it  may  be  necessary 
to  hold  these  from  week  to  week  on  different 
nights    because    of    business    contracts. 

8.  The  Better  Films  Committees  agree  that 
adult  performances  should  be  shown  to  adults 
without  any  criticism  expressed  or  implied.  The 
time   for  indiscriminate  criticism  is  past. 

9.  There  is  a  well  defined  place  and  demand 
for  non-theatrical  pictures  which  must  be  met. 
This  applies  also  to  films  having  educational, 
cultural  and  inspirational  values.  The  practi- 
cal effect  and  the  widespread  use  of  these  pic- 
tures outside  the  theatre  upon  theatrical  audi- 
ences are  held  to  be  unquestionably  the  enlarg- 
ing  of   such   discriminating  theatrical   audiences. 

10.  The  work  of  the  National  Board  of  Re- 
view and  of  the  National  Committee  for  Better 
Films  was  commended.  These  agencies  were 
held  to  be  necessary  for  selection,  for  the  ex- 
change of  opinion,  for  vmiting  sentiment  and 
for    the    extension    of    better    films    activities. 

11.  It  was  agreed  that  the  principle  of  "SE- 
LECTION—NOT— CENSORSHIP"  is  the  prac- 
tical solution  for  most  of  the  problems  faced 
by  the  public  in  connection  with  motion  picture 
entertainment.  To  accomplish  this  purpose  a 
widespread  campaign  of  education  conducted  by 
representatives  of  the  public  should  be  carried 
on. 

Tlie  meeting  was  held  in  the  new  auditorium 
of  the  Women's  Club  with  Mrs.  B.  M.  Boykin 
of  the  Atlanta  Better  Films  Committee  in  the 
chair. 

The  following  are  excerpts  from  the  annual 
reports  of  several  of  the  more  active  Better 
Films  Committees  in  various  parts  of  the 
country : —

What  the   better   films   committee 
has  accomplished  in  atlanta 

"The  Better  Films  Committee  of  Atlanta  was 
organized  November  12th,  1921,  by  representa- 
tives of  the  Atlanta  Woman's  Club,  the  State 
Federation  of  Women's  Clubs,  The  Drama 
League,  Parent-Teacher  Association,  Superin- 
tendent of  Public  Schools,  Rotary,  Kiwanis, 
Civitan  and  Lions  Clubs  and  the  Christian 
Council. 

"This  committee  consisting  of  twenty-six 
members  worked  out  definite  plans  on  which  to 
center  its  attention.  We  decided  first  of  all  to 
give  the  children  of  the  city  a  special  children's 
performance  each  Saturday.  The  selection  of 
the  pictures  was  worked  out  by  the  assistant 
superintendent  of  schools,  chairman  of  music 
in  the  public  schools  and  chairman  of  dramatics 
in  the  schools.  These  pictures  were  selected 
for  three  months  in  advance.  The  best  theatre 
in  the  city  was  presented  the  Better  Films  Com- 
mittee for  these  matinees,  which  from  the  first 
were   very   successful. 

"To  create  greater  interest  in  the  pictures 
shown,  a  prologue  feature  of  dancing,  singing  or 
story  telling  is  introduced.  Once  a  month  a 
musical  contest  to  develop  musical  appreciation, 
is  given.  Music  is  played  and  the  children  who 
guess  the  composer  and  name  of  selection  are 
given  a  prize.  In  selecting  the  pictures  to  be 
shown,  the  committee  carefully  worked  out  the 
educational  feature  to  conform  with  the  study 
the  children  in  tlie  seventh  and  eighth  grades 
were  having.  For  instance,  the  committee  plans 
to  have  a  picture  showing  the  country  tlie  chil- 
dren of  these  grades  are  studying  in  their  his- 
tory  or   geography   work. 

"A  nominal  admission  price  of  10c  is  charged 
to  these  matinees.  Wherever  groups  of  chil- 
dren unable  to  pay  even  this  amount  are  found 
they  are  given  free  tickets.  The  idea  is  not  to 
make  money,  but  to  give  all  the  children  in  our 
city  proper  pictures.  We  have  an  average  at- 
tendance   of    1,000    every    Saturday    morning. 

"With  the  intelligent  help  of  our  Parent- 
Teacher  Association  greater  interest  is  being 
aroused  in  getting  mothers  to  attend  with  their 
children.  The  Parent-Teachers  are  doing  par- 
ticularly splendid  work  in  connection  with  I?et- 
ter  Films.  Each  of  the  thirty  Parent-Teacher 
Associations  in  the  city  has  has  been  visited 
by  a  member  of  our  Speakers'  Bureau  from  the 
Better  Films  Committee  and  have  been  told 
how  they  might  cooperate  with  us  in  improving 
conditions  and  accomplishing  the  results  de- 
sired. Great  response  has  come  from  this 
source,  as  well  as  from  the  missionary  societies 
of  the  various  churches  who  have  pledged  co- 
operation  with   the   Committee. 

"We  have  a  visiting  committee  that  attends 
each  theatre  and  sees  each  picture  shown.  This 
committee  reports  at  the  regular  monthly  meet- 
ing, which  is  a  luncheon.  The  committee  views 
the  pictures  not  with  the  idea  of  giving  de- 
structive criticism,  but  merely  to  know  the  kind 
of  picture  being  shown  and,  if  there  is  an  ob- 
jectionable feature,  to  ask  that  it  be  eliminated. 
The  motion  picture  producers  have  generously 
asked  for  our  criticism  and  have  accepted  it  in 
the  spirit  in  which  it  is  given.  At  the  regular 
monthly  meeting  reports  are  made  concerning 
the  work  done  the  preceding  month  and  plans 
outlined    for    the    following    month. 

"The  committee  has  endorsed  a  number  of 
pictures,  one  in  particular,  which  was  shown 
here  for  the  third  time  in  the  United  States. 
Some  exhibitors  and  others  thought  it  would 
not  take  locally.  The  entire  membership  of 
the  Better  Films  Committee  endorsed  the  pic- 
ture and  asked  that  it  be  shown  over  the  entire 
country.  This  endorsement  went  out  to  17,000 
cities  in  the  United  States.  After  the  endorse- 
ment was  made  locally,  the  theatre  showing 
this  particular  film  increased  its  attendance  500 
over  any  picture  that  had  ever  been  shown  in 
Atlanta,  which  demonstrates  the  value  of  an 
endorsement  by  the  Better  Films  Committee 
and  the  confidence  the  public  has  in  such  a 
committee's   endorsement. 


JUNIOR    RECREATION    DEPARTMENT- 
MEMPHIS 

"THE  JUNIOR  RECREATION  DEPART- 
MENT, although  the  youngest  child  of  the  Nine- 
teenth Century  Club,  gives  promise  of  giant- 
like proportions  if  it  continues  to  develop  as 
rapidly  as  it  has  done  in  the  first  five  months 
of  its  existence.  I  say  this  because  our  eflforts 
are  with  and  for  the  young  people  who,  accord- 
ing to  the  way  they  are  influenced  and  inclined, 
are  made  fit  or  unfit  for  the  parts  they  are  to 
take  in  life,  for  as  Victor  Hugo  says,  'There  are 
no  bad  plants  or  bad  children,  there  are  only 
bad    cultivators.' 

"Our  results,  briefly  stated,  are  as  follows: 
Picture  shows  every  Saturday  morning  at  the 
Majestic  Theatre  at  10:30.  Twenty  pictures 
shown,  with  only  one  not  up  to  the  standard. 
Four  or  five  newspaper  write-ups  each  week. 
Have  entertained  from  fifty  to  one  hundred  and 
fifty  orphans  each  week,  besides  many  poor 
children,  providing  transportation  to  and  from 
the  theatre  and  in  some  cases  supplying  them 
with  clothes  and  shoes.  The  chairman  in  charge 
of  this  feature  of  our  work,  Mrs.  R.  L.  LaCroix, 
has  received  for  distribution  among  the  poor 
people  with  whom  she  comes  in  contact  enougli 
wearing  apparel  o(  all  kinds  to  meet  every  nec- 
essary requirement  of  eighteen  families  for  three 
months.  Besides,  fifty  dollars  in  cash  has  been 
donated  with  which  she  has  purchased  food  and 
other  things  necessary  to  the  comfort  and  con- 
tributing to  the  happiness  and  well  being  of 
the  deserving  and  needy  who  come  under  her 
observation.  Average  paid  attendance  for  first 
few  weeks,  three  hundred.  Average  paid  at- 
tendance last  four  weeks,  from  one  thousand  to 
fifteen  hundred.  The  singing  led  by  Mr.  Nevin 
has  been  a  popular  and  highly  interesting  fea- 
ture. The  children's  rendition  of  'America'  is 
more  inspiring  than  the  efforts  of  most  adult 
gatherings.  For  the  last  six  weeks  we  have 
had  the  added  attraction  of  drawing  for  prizes, 
which  is  done  after  the  singing  and  insures  that 
no  one  will  leave  while  'America'  is  being  sung. 
The  prizes  are  donated  by  Memphis  merchants; 
being  worth  while  and  diflFerent  each  week,  they 
furnish  a  most  interesting  part  of  our  program. 

"Perhaps  the  greatest  contributing  influence 
to  our  successors  has  been  the  prominence  given 
our  undertaking  by  the  newspapers.  Whithout 
hesitancy  or  complaint  they  have  given  us  space 
liberally  and  constantly,  and  so  have  made  it 
possible  for  us  to  acquaint  the  public  quickly 
with  our  hopes  and  plans.  Also  I  would  record 
my  grateful  recognition  of  the  unfailing  courtesy 
and  hearty  cooperation  accorded  us  by  the  offi- 
cials of  the  Southern  Enterprises,  Inc.,  and  par- 
ticularly those  in  charge  of  the  Majestic  The- 
atre. Our  committee  takes  what  we  consider 
pardonable  pride  in  our  accomplishments  to  date 
and  feel  well  repaid  for  our  efforts,  in  the  hope 
that  we  have  been  partly  instrumental  in  start- 
ing a  movement  that  will  continue  to  expand 
to  the  credit  of  our  club,  and  the  good  of  chil- 
dren  everywhere." 

By  Mrs.  John  H.   Phillips,  Chairman. 

MINNEAPOLIS    BETTER    MOVIE 

MOVEMENT    PLAN 

Mrs.    Bert    S.    Barber — Women's    Co-operative 

Alliance 

"The  Minneapolis  Better  Movie  Movement 
Plan  of  the  Women's  Co-operative  Alliance  con- 
centrates its  efforts  upon  'SELECTION — NOT 
CENSORSHIP'  as  the  solution.  Interested  citi- 
zens function  through  the  organization  of  local 
committees  to  cooperate  with  the  manager  of 
each  motion  picture  theatre  for  more  acceptable 
films  and  better  understanding  of  the  whole 
subject   of  moving   pictures. 

"The  principles  upon  which  the  Better  Movie 
Movement  is  based  are  self-determination  and 
cooperation.  Other  movements  have  failed  and 
all  censorship  plans  have  been  ineffective  and 
resented.  With  these  simple  facts  in  mind  and 
with  the  information  supplied  by  the  following 
report  of  the  survey  of  all  moving  picture  the- 
atres   in    the   city,   a   plan    was   developed    which 


400 


has  been   acceptable   to   both   the   moving   picture 
management   and    the   patrons. 

"The  managers  of  moving  picture  theatres 
have  maintained  tliat  they  gave  the  people  what 
they  wanted.  So  far  as  the  managers  were  in- 
formed, perhaps  this  is  true.  The  field  workers 
of  the  Women's  Co-oiierative  Alliance,  who 
reach  several  thousands  of  mothers  each  month 
by  house  to  house  calls  and  by  addressing  audi- 
ences in  churches,  schools  and  clubs,  were  as- 
sured by  the  great  majority  of  mothers  that 
there  was  much  in  the  motion  picture  program 
that  they  did  not  like  and  a  great  deal  to  which 
they  positively  objected.  This  did  not  discour- 
age the  organizers  of  this  movement  because 
the  managers  themselves  had  relied  on  the  prin- 
ciple that  each  individual  has  the  right  to  de- 
termine what  he  or  she  shall  see.  They  had 
expressed  the  idea  that  no  individual  or  group 
of  individuals  should  superimpose  their  ideas 
ixpon    others. 

"The  weakness  seemed  not  in  the  principle, 
which  was  as  sound  in  its  applications  to  this 
subject  as  it  is  to  government,  but  the  fault 
lay  in  the  plan,  or  the  lack  of  a  medium  through 
which  the  people  could  register  their  full  ap- 
proval or  disapproval  of  films.  Public  sentiment 
was  forming  and  becoming  really  ominous.  It 
needed  direction  and  control.  It  must  be  crys- 
tallized and  systematized.  Tliis  is  accomplished 
by:  first,  dividing  the  city  into  geographical 
units  or  contributing  community  groups  ad- 
jacent to  or  surrounding  each  theatre  or  group 
of  theatres;  second,  securing  delegates  selected 
from  each  constructive  agency  such  as  churches, 
schools  and  clubs  of  the  district  and  as  many 
individual  volunteers  as  can  be  interested  in 
the  subject  for  the  formation  of  a  local  com- 
mittee for  selection  not  censorship;  third,  co- 
operation on  the  part  of  the  local  committee 
thus  formed  with  the  manager  of  each  local 
theatre  to  develop  the  movement  in  their  own 
community  according  to  their  needs,  the  policy 
being  to  determine  for  themselves  among  them- 
selves    the     kind     of     films     they     can     support; 


slogans     'Selection— Not     Censorship,'     'Coopera- 


fourth,     by     adopting     frorn     the     beginnmg     the 
I         slogans    'Selection — Not 
P         tion — Not   Antagonism.' 

TEXAS 

Elizabeth  Hardaway,  District  Chairman  of  the 
3rd  District  of  the  Texas  Federation  of  Women's 
Clubs,  speaks  of  plans  for  "an  intensive  and 
widespread  campaign  in  the  fall  for  cooperation 
with  local  managers  for  better  films,  a  children's 
rnatinee  one  day  in  the  week  and  visual  instruc- 
tions in  the  schools."  Assistance  in  the  form 
of  literature  has  been  supplied  to  Miss  Hard- 
away; also  to  the  Tennessee  Federation  of 
Women's  Clubs  for  their  Spring  convention  at 
Dyersburg. 

TENNESSEE 

Better  Films  committees  have  been  formed 
in  Jackson,  Tenn.,  Rocky  Mount,  N.  C,  Gads- 
den,  Ala.,    and    Bristol,    Va.-Tenn. 

VIRGINIA 

A  cow  barn  owned  by  John  Armstrong  Chal- 
oner  at  "The  Merry  Mills,"  Virginia,  has  been 
converted  into  a  motion  picture  theatre.  The 
place  was  equipped  with  a  Delco  electric  plant, 
a  projecting  machine  and  a  player-piano  at  a 
cost  of  $1525.  Shows  were  given  free  for  the 
first  six  months,  after  which  the  people  asked 
that  it  be  continued  on  the  cooperative  plan. 
Charges  were  made  of  10  cents  for  adults  and 
5  cents  for  children.  All  the  collections  go  to 
pay  for  entertainments.  It  has  more  than  sup- 
ported itself.  One  of  the  respected  local  citi- 
zens said:  "It  has  changed  the  whole  aspect 
of  my  life.  Before  the  movie  began  I  did  noth- 
ing but  work  all  day  and  go  home  and  go  to 
bed  at  night.  Now  I  have  something  to  look 
forward  to  and  find  myself  living  from  one  pic- 
ture right  to  the  next." 

ILLINOIS 

Three  thousand  Chicago  school  children  told 
about  their  movie  attendance  and  tastes  in  re- 
sponse   to    a    questionnaire    sent    out    last    Janu- 


ary by  Mrs.  Estella  L.  Moulton,  former  chair- 
man of  the  Better  Films  committee  of  the  Il- 
linois Council  of  Parent-Teacher  Associations. 
Of  these,  87  per  cent  attended  from  one  to 
seven   or  more    shows   every  week. 

"I  go  to  the  movies  nine  times  a  week,  every 
night  and  also  in  the  afternoon  on  Saturday  and 
Sunday,"  was  the  answer  of  one  youngster  to 
the  query,  "How  many  times  a  week  do  you 
go   to   the   movies?" 

"With  several  hundred  of  the  children  who 
responded  to  the  questionnaire,  attendance  at 
the  movies  is  a  fixed  habit,"  declared  Mrs. 
Moulton.  "Answers  such  as,  'I  always  go  two 
times  a  week  except  in  Lent;  I  never  go  in 
Lent,'  and  'I  always  go  every  Friday  night  as 
there  is  no  school  the  next  day,'  indicated  the 
regularity  of  their  movie-going.  Indeed,  Fri- 
day, Saturday  and  Sunday  now  mean  attendance 
at  the  movies  as  definitely  as  Sunday  used  to 
mean   attendance    at    Sunday-school." 

The  question,  "What  kind  of  pictures  do  you 
prefer?"  brought  out  a  wealth  of  matter  which 
reformers    and    statisticians    may    well    ponder. 

"The  pictures  I  like  best  are  those  which 
scare  you,"  "Good  sensible  pictures  where  people 
are  very  poor  and  grow  rich,"  "Guns  and  police 
wagons,  because  people  are  all  sad  and  excited," 
"Travels  with  Burton  Holmes,"  "Mystery,  but 
not  too  deep,"  "Lots  of  fighting  when  men  are 
brave  and  fight  for  a  girl,"  "Good  books  like 
Pollyanna,"  "How  things  are  made,  pictures  of 
fisheries,  etc.,  and  good  western  scenery,"  "Edu- 
cational pictures  like  The  Lincoln  Highwayman," 
are  types  of  the  answers  received. 

The  boy  who  said  he  went  to  the  movies  nine 
times  a  week  doubtless  saw  every  picture  that 
came  to  his  neighborhood,  regardless  of  his 
preferences. 

In  order  to  determine  the  actual  effect  of  the 
movies  upon  the  school  work  of  the  pupils, 
teachers  in  six  schools  were  asked  to  indicate 
the  pupils  who  stood  highest  or  lowest  in 
scholarship  and  deportment  in  each  room.  The 
data  compiled  in  these  representative  districts 
of  the  city  showed  that  the  275  best  pupils 
used  393  tickets  in  one  week,  whereas  the  275 
poorest  pupils  used  503  tickets  weekly.  An- 
other item  of  interest  brought  to  light  by  the 
questionnaire  is  that  the  children  in  the  poor 
tenement  districts  attend  the  movies  as  fre- 
quently as  the  children  in  the  best  residential 
sections. 

According  to  the  data  received,  boys  and  girls 
in  the  six  schools  covered  by  the  questionnaire 
spent  $920  a  week  on  the  movies,  making  the 
total  for  the  year  reach  the  astonishing  figure 
of  $46,000. 

After  serving  two  years  on  the  Better  Films 
committee  and  giving  close  study  to  the  mo- 
tion picture  situation  as  it  afifects  school  chil- 
dren,   Mrs.    Moulton    says: 

"The  publicity  given  to  surveys  and  discus- 
sions on  this  subject  are  arousing  both  parents 
and  teachers  to  the  vital  need  of  improvement 
in  the  films  on  which  boys  and  girls  spend 
their  leisure  time.  The  educational  shows  for 
children  which  are  now  being  given  in  many 
cities  on  Saturday  mornings  can  be  traced  di- 
rectly to  the  untiring  efTorts  of  the  Parent- 
Teacher    associations."

The  Foreign  Market 


American  Film  Exports 

The  position  of  the  American  film  in  Export 
at  the  present  time  is  very  critical.  Where  will 
it  lead  to?  A  hasty  review  of  foreign  conditions 
discloses  the  fact  that  the  supremacy  of  the 
American  film  as  the  leader  of  screen  produc- 
tions is  menaced,  though  let  it  be  added  hastily, 
not  seriously.  But  there  are  signs  on  the 
horizon  which  must  make  the  American  producer 
pause  and  reflect. 

Starting  with  fundamentals,  we  here  in  the 
United  States  are  three  thousand  miles  removed 
from  the  influences  of  Europe.  In  history  and 
economics  we  have  up  to  a  very  short  time  ago, 
assumed  a  position  of  isolation  which  has  left  an 
indelible  mark  on  our  psychology.  We  are  bound 
by  a  common  tongue  and  therefore  by  a  com- 
mon literature,  to  English  speaking  people  all 
over  the  world.  But  just  as  in  transplanting  a 
tree  it  begins  to  assume  some  of  the  qualities 
of  its  new  home — so  have  we  as  a  people  while 
still  retaining  many  of  the  qualities  of  our 
heritage,  established  and  produced  a  new  in- 
dividuality. This  is  reflected  in  all  our  thought — 
it  is  mirrored  on  the  screen.  Therefore,  in  pro- 
ducing films,  we  are  picturizing  American  ideas 
and  ideals.  They  are  intelligible  to  us.  The 
spectator  in  the  motion  picture  theatre  must  get 
that  reaction  of  kinship  of  understanding  so 
that  that  which  he  sees  on  the  screen  must  be 
sympathetic  to  him.  Therefore  in  producing 
pictures,  and  in  seeking  to  retain  the  foreign 
market  which  we  have  so  laboriously  acquired, 
we  must  see  to  it  that  a  film  is  equally  under- 
standable in  Berlin  as  it  is  in  Brooklyn,  in 
Bombay  as  it  is   Buenos  Aires. 

This  unfortunately,  in  years  gone  by,  has  not 
been  the  guide  of  the  American  producer,  in  a 
large  measure.  He  has  made  pictures  with  the 
English  speaking — and  very  often  only  the  Narth 
American    market — in    mind. 

Who  will  deny  that  in  the  United  States  we 
liave  the  largest  studios?  The  best  equipment? 
The  most  proficient  camera  work?  The  most 
competent  actors?  A  selection  of  the  most 
talented  directors?  The  ablest  writers?  In 
short,  we  have  everything  that  gives  us  all  the 
tools  that  are  necessary  to  produce  the  pictures 
that  by  their  sheer  quality  should  rout  all  con- 
tenders for  our  world  leadership  from  the 
screens   all   over  the  world. 

One  thing  we  are  overlooking — the  proper 
grasp  of  human  elemental  emotions  which  is 
common  to  all  peoples.  Our  pictures  must 
speak  to  all  peoples  an  equally  intelligible 
tongue.  We  have  a  tremendously  powerful 
weapon  but  it  is  an  equally  grave  responsibility. 

The  resolutions  of  our  leading  producers  in 
the  future  to  strive  for  quality  instead  of  making 
quantity  is  a  hopeful  and  encouraging  token. 
We  can  retain  our  lead  if  we  will  but  use  the 
facilities  which  we  have  at  our  command. — 
George   E.   Kann,   Goldwyn. 

Exploitation  for  Foreign  Markets 

Exploitation !  As  necessary  in  the  foreign  mo- 
tion picture  markets  as  the  need  for  modern 
theaters  of  greater  seating  capacity.  As  a  matter 
of  fact,  the  movement  for  larger  theaters  and  the 
appreciation  of  their  value  in  the  development 
of  the  motion  picture  business  abroad  is  consider- 
ably more  advanced  than  aggressive  showmanship 
and  forceful  exploitation. 

While  feature  exploitation  throughout  the  film 
domain  of  the  United  States  has  reached  a  highly 
developed  stage,  it  is  hardly  more  than  incipient 
in  most  of  the  foreign  territories  where  the  seern- 
ing  apathy  and  disinterest  of  the  foreign  distri- 
butor and,  in  turn,  exhibitor  toward  showman- 
ship,  has   been   a   retarding   factor. 

Exploitation  has  for  its  purpose  the  setting 
forth  of  the  individual  points  of  interest  and  sell- 
ing value  in  any  given  production,  to  the  theater 
going  public.  Whereas  the  posters  and  lobby  dis- 
plays  might   be   defined   as   the   ordinary  magnet  to 


attract  the  public  inside  the  theater,  exploitation, 
with  its  more  powerful  appeal,  must  be  the  electric 
magnet   that   draws   the  cash   into   the   box-office. 

And  just  as  photoplays  differ,  so  must  their 
exploitation  vary.  Each  campaign  must  be  indi- 
vidually fitted  to  the  particular  picture.  Each  sell- 
ing point  should  be  impressively  emphasized,  and 
wherever  possible,   visualized. 

Descriptive  language  should  be  used  effectively 
and  to  the  point — epigramatic  when  possible.  All 
gradations  of  ballyhooing  from  flaringly  circusy  to 
delicately  refined  and  polished  are  in  order  when 
applicable  to  any  given  production  under  con- 
sideration. 

I  believe  our  organization  has  been  foremost 
in  recognizing  the  need  of  exploitation  abroad. 
As  a  result  we  endeavor  to  encourage  our  foreign 
buyer  to  incorporate  it  in  his  distributing  cam- 
paigns. WILLIAM    M.    VOGEL. 

Anticipates  Improvement 

Last  year  we  predicted  that  export  business  for 
independent  exporters  would  be  bad  for  1922,  and 
the  facts  have  proven  that  we  were  right.  We 
had  not  in  mind  the  big  producing  organizations 
with  own  exchanges  and  branches  in  most  of 
the   foreign   territories. 

We  expect  that  business  for  1923  will  be  better 
and  we  see  already  some  improvement  for  a 
few  territories  which  have  been  very  bad  in  the 
last  year.  However,  business  in  Continental 
Europe  will  yet  be  far  from  normal,  and  various 
territories  there  will  either  not  be  salable  at  all 
or   only   at   very   low   prices. 

Really  good  films  are  always  and  nearly  every- 
where salable  and  at  good  prices,  but  the  trouble 
is,  that  there  are  only  few  productions  which 
deserve  that  name  and  competition  is  everywhere 
too  big  to  allow  even  fair  prices  for  ordinary  pro- 
gram  features. 

European  firms  who  want  program  pictures  can 
buy  English — German — French — and  Italian  made 
films  at  a  fraction  of  the  price  they  have  to  pay 
for  American  productions  and  although  foreign 
productions  are  not  liked  in  America,  they  have 
for  Europe  besides  their  price  the  advantage  that 
they  deal  with  domestic  conditions,  have  scenarios 
of  local  authors  and  actors  who  are  well  known.

Need  International  Copyright  Law 

One  of  the  hardest  matters  to  face,  is  the  pirat- 
ing of  prints  by  different  people  in  the  Orient. 
One  often  finds  that  after  making  purchase  of  the 
exclusive  right  to  a  production  that  a  stolen  print 
of  the  same  is  already  running  in  the  field.  Sev- 
eral law  suits  are  now  pendfng  in  such  matters, 
and  we  are  quite  hopeful  that  this  will  be  prop- 
erly taken  care  of.  If  it  were  possible  to  effect 
an  International  Copyright  Law,  many  large 
sums  of  money  would  be  protected. 

A.   H.   WOOLLACOTT, 

Harper    Optimistic 

Based  on  recent  experience  it  appears  safe  to 
predict  better  times  in  the  near  future  for  the  pur- 
veyors of  film  rights  in  foreign  fields.  No  serious 
YEAR    ROOK— 107 

business  is  possible  in  most  of  Central  Europe, 
and  of  course,  Russia  must  be  left  out  of  calcula- 
tions for  the  time  being.  On  the  other  hand, 
France,  Belgium,  Switzerland,  Holland,  Scandi- 
navia, Czecho  Slovakia  are  probably  more  recep- 
tive today  than  at  any  time  during  the  last  two 
years.  Trade  with  Spain  and  Portugal  and  Italy 
is  also  possible.  In  the  United  Kingdom  the, 
until  lately,  anemic  pulse  of  the  motion  picture 
business  is  beyond  question,  commencing  to  beat 
much  more  strongly,  and  the  trade  is  acquiring  an 
all  around  greater  momentum.  The  demand  how- 
ever is  strictly  confined  to  the  highest  class  of 
pictures.  Altogether  the  signs  of  the  times  point 
to  a  renaissance  in  export  trade  conditions  during 
1923.  HORACE  G.  HARPER,

THE    FOREIGN    OUTLOOK 

By  D.  J.  Mountain,  Arrow  Film  Corp. 

The  American  ]>i()(lucer  and  distributor  is  now 
feeling  in  an  exceedingly  optimistic  mood,  and 
the  outlook  for  foreign  sales  is  brighter  than 
it   has   been   in   the  past    four   years. 

The  gradual  improvements  in  the  exchanges 
of  various  European  territories,  as  also  that  of 
our  Latin  neighbors,  is  the  reason  for  the  notice- 
able increase  in  the  ntmiber  of  foreign  sales 
made  within  the  past  four  or  five  months,  and 
proves  to  the  American  film  industry  that 
economical  conditions  in  foreign  territories  are 
rapidly  being  adjusted  with  many  indications 
that  conditions  in  these  territories,  with  a  few 
exceptions,  will  in  the  near  future  be  back  to 
normal. 

Despite  the  fact  that  European  production  is 
at  its  very  heighth,  and  various  European 
countries  have  endeavored  to  corner  the  film 
market,  American  pictures  are  still  far  in  the 
lead,  and  in  my  estimation  will  continue  to  lead, 
unless  European  producers  show  much  better 
results  than  they  have  heretofore.  We  have 
seen  a  few  foreign  pictures  of  exceptional  merit, 
but  the  vast  majority  are  of  inferior^  quality  and 
cannot  hope  to  compare  with  American  produc- 
tions.     I    think    that    our    nearest    competitor    in 


quality  is  Scandinavia,  who  are  turning  out  no 
more  than  twenty  pictures  a  year,  but  these 
pictures  are,  as  a  whole,  a  better  quality  than 
those  produced  by  either  England,  France  or 
Germany.  Scandinavia,  however,  has  its  limita- 
tions, and  I  doubt  will  ever  be  a  serious  com- 
petitor. England  is  turning  out  a  few  very  fine 
productions  at  the  present  time  and  will  eventual- 
ly sell  her  products  in  the  market  of  the  world 
in  competition  with  American  pictures.  France 
is  turning  out  a  few  exceedingly  fine  pictures, 
but  as  a  whole  her  pictures  at  present  are  more 
suitable  for  local  consumption.  Germany,  on 
account  of  the  exchange,  is  in  a  position  to  make 
magnificent  spectacles  at  a  very  low  cost,  but 
with  a  few  exceptions  made  a  record  for  quantity 
rather  than  quality.  Nine-tenths  of  the  German 
pictures  I  have  seen  are  totally  unsuitable  for 
American  &  British  consumption.  While  little 
has  been  heard  of  Italy,  she  has  made  some  very 
fine  pictures,  which  will  eventually  find  their  way 
into  the  American  market.  She  seems  to  be 
making  a  greater  bid  now  to  have  American  pro- 
ducers make  their  pictures  in  Italy  than  to  make 
pictures  for  her  own  consumption,  and  in  this 
she  is  making  a  very  wise  move,  as  she  is  not 
only  bringing  the  American  dealer  to  Italy,  but 
gradually  finds  a  place  for  her  own  made  Italian 
pictures.  (Continued   on  page   409)

THE   FOREIGN    OUTLOOK 

(Continued  from  page  405) 
From  a  sale  standpoint  England  naturally  is 
our  greatest  market,  and  while  conditions  were 
for  a  while  very  poor,  the  past  four  months  has 
seen  a  great  many  sales  made  in  London,  and 
an  unexpected  influx  of  British  buyers  in  the 
United  States.  There  is  as  great  a  demand  in 
England  as  ever  for  high  grade  American  pic- 
tures, and  this  despite  the  fact  that  German  pic- 
tures may  now  be  shown  there.  The  call  for 
one  and  two  reel  comedies  and  other  short  sub- 
jects is  so  great  that  the  American  producers 
are  finding  it  very  hard  to  meet  this  demand. 
In  Scandinavia  American  pictures  have  first  call, 
and  we  have  no  difficulty  in  disposing  of  our 
pictures  there.  They  must  be  of  best  quality, 
however,  as  the  Scandinavian  market  has  no 
place  for  the  mediocre  pictures.  As  in  Eng- 
gland,  short  reel  subjects  of  American  manu- 
facture are  in  great  demand.  In  France,  Bel- 
gium, Sv^itzerland  and  Holland  there  has  been 
a  very  noticeable  increase  in  buying,  and  I  feel 
that  the  demand  for  good  American  pictures 
will  be  much  greater  within  the  next  few 
months.  In  Central  Europe  sales  have  been 
slow  as  a  whole,  although  one  or  two  companies 
have  managed  to  dispose  of  considerable  pro- 
duct. Germany  and  Austria  Hungary  are  par- 
ticularly slow  only  on  account  of  the  prevailing 
rate  of  exchange,  but  indications  are  that  we 
will  soon  be  placing  American  product  there. 
Czecho  Slovakia  is  a  very  good  market  for 
American  pictures,  and  the  Balkans  are  begin- 
ning to  buy.  Italy  has  been  more  or  less  a 
closed  territory  for  the  past  few  years,  but 
they  are  now  buying  American  pictures  in  large 
numbers.  South  America  has  been  one  of  the 
best  markets  for  American  pictures,  and  the 
demand  there  is  increasing  steadily,  so  much  so 
that  American  producers  and  distributors  find 
it  bard  to  produce  enough  film  to  supply  them. 
In  Central  America,  Mexico  is  now  buying  stead- 
ily, and  Cuba  after  a  dormant  period  is  again 
in  the  market  and  a  number  of  sales  have  been 
reported  recently.  Japan  also  is  a  good  mar- 
ket for  American  pictures,  and  they  are  using 
the  entire  American  output.  India,  Burma  and 
Ceylon  are  more  interested  in  serial  and  action 
pictures,  but  there  is  a  fairly  good  market  there 
for  high  grade  American  pictures.  Most  sales, 
however,  are  made  through  London,  where 
credit  is  extended  through  various  banking  affilia- 
tions. The  Philippines  cannot  assimilate  all 
American  productions,  and  only  three  distributors 
are  represented  there,  among  which  are  the  Ar- 
row Film  Corporation,  who  have  placed  their 
entire  product  in  this  market.  China  is  also  a 
little  slow  on  features,  the  demand  there  being 
for  serials  and  action  pictures  rather  than  high- 
class  dramas. 

All  in  all,  however,  the  present  and  future  out- 
look for  the  American  pictures  in  the  foreign 
market  is  a  most  optimistic  one,  and  I  for  one 
feel    sure    that   we   need    have   no    fear   of   foreign 

competition. 

English    Gross    Estimated    £30,000,000 

London — Sir  Oswald  Stoll  estimates  the  total 
revenue  derived  from  the  film  industry  in  Great 
Britain  yearly  is    £30,000,000. 


THE   GOLF   TOURNAMENTS 

(Continued    from    page   397) 

On  Dec.  18  at  Hollywood  after  several  disap- 
pointing starts  about  50  film  folk  gathered  and 
after  playing  formed  the  Motion  Picture  Golf  As- 
sociation of  which  Nat  Deverich  was  elected  presi- 
dent  and  J.    C.   Jessen,   secretary  and   treasurer. 

The  board  of  directors  include  Deverich,  Jessen, 
Owen  Moore,  Neal  Burns  and  Larry  Semon.  A 
tournament  is  proposed  to  be  he'd  everv  six  months. 

Larry  Semon  offered  a  trophy  which  must  be 
won  three  consecutive  times  for  permanent  pos- 
session. 

Charles  Requa  won  tl-e  Cbar'es  Thristy  troohy 
with  a  score  of  80.  C  H.  Wellington  of  Jess 
Robbins  Prod,  won  the  Earl  Hammons  tror'hy  for 
low  net  with  a  score  of  72.  The  Abe  Warner 
runner  up  tronhy  for  low  net  was  won  by  Milton 
E.    Hoffman    with    a    73.

Italian    Tariff    a    Handicap 

According  to  a  special  cable  to  the  N.  V. 
Herald  from  Rome,  in  March,  the  recent  high 
tariff  which  Italy  has  placed  on  films,  which  has 
been  increased  sevenfold,  is  seriously  crippling 
the  exportation  of  finished  Italian  films  to  America. 
The  Italians  buv  most  of  their  raw  films  from 
Germany.  In  1914  Italv  exported  3,000,000  feet 
of   film    to   America,  but   in    1921    only   800,000.

Bureau  of  Foreign  and  Domestic  Commerce  Reports 


ARGENTINA 

By  Trade  Commissioner  George  S.  Brady, 
Buenos    Aires. 

The  demand  in  Argentina  for  motion-picture 
plays  is  probably  as  great  in  proportion  to  the 
population  as  in  any  country  of  the  world.  While 
at  the  present  moment  the  American  film  has  the 
greatest  share  of  the  market,  the  American  pro- 
ducer can  not  afford  to  feel  too  sure  of  the  field, 
and  should  follow  closely  the  requirements  of 
the  people  in  order  to  retain  his  hold.  Prices  of 
American  films  in  Argentina  are  so  much  higher 
than  for  the  European  that  distributors  often 
place  one  or  more  European  films  in  the  program 
in  order  to  balance  the  cost.  The  public  likes 
the  American  photo  play,  but  in  general  has  no 
choice  in  the  selection   of  program. 

At  present  there  are  128  operating  motion- 
picture  theaters  in  the  city  of  Buenos-Aires  alone, 
with  2,250,000  paid  admissions  per  month.  Usually 
three  films,  sometimes  four,  constitute  a  complete 
show,  and  two  shows  are  given  each  day.  Only 
one  theater  in  Buenos  Aires  operates  continuously 
as  in  the  United  States.  An  interval  of  several 
minutes  is  allowed  between  reels  and  from  5 
to  10  minutes  between  pictures,  the  public  de- 
manding these  intervals  in  order  to  look  around 
and  greet  acquaintances  in  the  theater.  Entrance 
may  be  bought  for  one  picture  or  for  the  entire 
show. 

Local    Production    of    Motion    Pictures 

There  are  not  less  than  IS  established  motion- 
picture  producers  in  Argentina.  Since  the  success- 
ful production  of  the  drama  "Nobleza  Gaucha" 
by  the  company  Martinezy  Gunche  in  1916,  there 
has  been  a  demand  for  local  film  production,  but, 
with  almost  no  exception,  such  plays  have  been 
poorly  acted  by  inexperienced  performers  and 
usually  poorly  set  and  managed.  Little  or  no 
money  has  been  spent  in  their  production ;  and 
financially  successful  ones  have  owed  this  fact 
to  their  "home  talent"  nature.  Recently  the 
Tylca  Film  produced  a  drama  which  was  re- 
written and  directed  by  an  American  film  director. 
Several  companies  are  making  efforts  to  train 
local  actors  and  so  gradually  to  become  producers 
of  salable  plays.  There  is  no  good  reason  to  feel 
that  local  talent  is  not  available ;  but  capital  has 
been  lacking  and  the  few  actors  have  been  picked 
so   far   from   a  limited   circle. 

Greater  success  has  attended  the  production  of 
current-event  films,  and  one  company  (M.  Gallo) 
produces    10,000   feet    of   these    daily. 

[A  list  of  principal  Argentine  importers  of 
motion-picture  films  may  be  obtained  from  the 
Bureau  of  Foreign  and  Domestic  Commerce,  or 
its  district  and  cooperative  offices,  by  referring 
to  file  No.   LA-IOOSO  A.] 

CANADA 

Two  surveys  of  the  industry  in  Canada  were 
made  in  1922.  One  by  George  W.  Shotts,  Consul 
at  Saulte  Ste.  Marie,  Ontario  ;  the  other  by  G. 
Bruce  Andrews,  Clerk  at  the  American  Consulate, 
Montreal.  Shotts'  report  concerns  the  Province 
of    Ontario ;    Mr.    Andrews'    Quebec. 

American  motion  pictures  are  popular  in  On- 
tario and  are  practically  the  only  ones  exhibited 
in  this  consular  district.  High  class  dramas  and 
comedies    seem    to    be    preferred. 

Practically  all  pictures  are  furnished  through 
Agents  in  Toronto,  Ontario,  and  shipped  per 
Dominion    Express. 

Prevailing  price  of  admission  for  the  evening 
performance  is  35  cents  for  adults,  in  exceptional 
cases  it  may  be  as  high  as  SO  cents. 

_No  films  are  imported  into  this  consular  dis- 
trict direct,  but  the  Canadian  import  duty  on  films 
of  all  kinds  is  3  cents  per  lineal  foot,  plus  sales 
tax  of  4%.  The  duty  on  advertising  matter  is  IS 
cents   per   pound,    plus   sales   tax    of   49f. 

It  may  be  possible  to  secure  news  events  of 
this  district  from  Edgar  Fulcher. 

The  people  of  this  district  or  generally  through- 
out Canada,  differ  little,  if  any,  in  their  prefer- 
ence and  ideas  of  picture  films  from  those  of  the 
U.    S.,    especially   along   the   more   Northern   states. 


A  few  English  pictures  and  several  of  Austrian 
or  German  origin  have  been  shown  in  Montreal, 
but  the  American  ones  are  the  most  popular  and 
practically  supply  the  needs  of  the  entire  market. 
There  are  none  furnished  locally.  The  pictures 
that  seem  to  attract  the  greater  number  of  people 
are  the  spectacular  productions  and  society  plays, 
although,  at  the  smaller  houses,  serial  pictures  and 
Western  stories  are  still  popular  and  there  are 
quite  a  number  of  these  places.  Several  of  the 
larger  theaters  have  been  showing  lately  feature 
films  with  the  titles  in  both  English  and  French 
and   it   appears   to   he   a  popular   innovation. 

The  Stars  that  are  favorites  in  the  L'nited  States 
are  also   popular   here   as   the   situation   is   similar. 

There  are  about  60  theaters  in  the  city  of 
Montreal  and  perhaps  10  small  ones  in  the  other 
places  within   this  consular  district. 

The  prices  of  admission  vary  greatly.  The 
maximum  charged  in  the  evening  is  50  cents  for 
general  admission  and  80  cents  for  a  box  seat. 
Some  of  the  large  theaters  charge  slightly  less  for  a 
seat   in   the  balcony,   the  small   ones  all   do. 

CHILE 

RoUo  S.  Smith,  secretary  to  the  commercial 
attache   at    Santiago,    Chile,    reported    in   April : 

The  moving  picture  business  in  Santiago  is 
well  established  and  the  theaters  well  patronized. 
There  are  23  motion  picture  theaters  located  in 
various  sections  of  the  city  in  which  two  and  some- 
times three  shows  a  day  are  given.  Prices  range 
according  to  the  character  and  location  of  the 
theater,  from  1.20  to  3  pesos  (at  present  rates 
of  exchange,  about  13  and  33  cents)  for  seats  in 
the   pit. 

A  new  theater  is  now  in  process  of  construction 
in  a  thickly  populated  residential  section  which 
will  cost  800,000  pesos  ($89,000),  and  will  seat 
2,500   people. 

Preference  is  given  to  American  pictures,  but 
in  decreasing  proportion  as  Europeans  perfect 
their  productions.  It  is  estimated  that  a  year 
ago  the  proportion  of  American  films  exhibited 
to  all  others  exhibited  in  Santiago  was  95  to  5 ; 
today  it  is  6S  to  35.  Without  doubt  this  is  due 
in  large  part  to  the  high  exchange  premium  on 
the  American  dollar;  but  aside  from  this  is  the 
undeniable  fact  that  German  and  French  pro- 
ducers are  not  only  improving  in  the  technique 
of  their  professions  but  their  subjects  are  given 
a  wider  scope  than  is  frequently  found  in  American 
films.  Importers  of  American  moving  pictures  in 
Santiago  feel  that  if  American  producers  wish  to 
hold  this  market  their  prices  will  have  to  be 
lowered    to    compete    with    European    offerings. 

CHINA 

Trade  Commissioner  Lynn  W.  Meekins,  formerly 
at    Peking,    reports  : 

The  Chinese  like  films  with  plenty  of  action," 
said  an  American  motion-picture  man  in  Shanghai. 
They  have  also  a  liighly  developed  sense  of 
humor.  Exciting  serial  dramas  and  boisterous 
comedies  appeal  to  them  most,  but  not  society 
or  problem  piays.  News  films,  espccally  those 
containing  animated  cartoons,  are  popular.  The 
regulation  program  consists  of  a  comedy,  a  news 
film,  and  a  five-reel  feature. 
Conditions    Retarding   the    Motion-Picture    Industry 

Motion  pictures  have  made  slow  progress  in 
China,  because  of  the  lack  in  large  numbers  of 
exhibitors  (there  are  less  than  100  picture  the- 
aters) and  in  facilities  for  quick  trans'portation  on 
which  profitable  distribution  depends.  In  Shan- 
ghai there  are  20  theaters;  Canton,  15;  Harbin, 
10;  Hongkong,  8;  Peking,  Tientsin,  and  Han- 
kow, 7  each ;  elsewhere,  they  are  few  and  far 
between.  About  20  are  attended  by  foreigners, 
and  possibly  20  more — 40  in  all — deserve  im- 
mediate consideration  as  exhibitors  of  first-class 
American  films. 

Theater  Capacities  and  Prices 

Seating   capacity    varies    from    100   to   2,000;    the 

average    for    theaters    to     which    foreigners    go    is 

about    600.      Admission    charges    range    from    Yuan 

$0.05     CU.     S.     $0,025,     at     normal     exchange)     to 


421 


$0.35  (U.  S.  $0,175)  for  the  natives,  and  from 
Yuan  to  $0.60  (U.  S.  $030)  to  $2  (U.  S.  $1) 
for  foreigners.  Many  upper-class  Chinese,  par- 
ticularly in  Peking  and  Shanghai,  pay  foreign 
rates  in  order  to  occupy  the  best  seats.  Two 
.shows  daily,  including  Sunday,  are  the  general 
rule;  they  are  held  in  the  evening,  with  occasional 
matinees.  Music  is  provided  by  any  available 
means,  from  a  phonograph  or  a  piano  to  a  small 
orchestra. 

In  addition  to  the  regular  exhibitions  in  the- 
aters, motion  pictures  are  shown  in  large  native 
amusement  enterprises  such  as  the  "Old  World" 
and  the  "New  World,"  Shanghai,  and  the  "New 
World,"  Peking,  where  the  low  general  admission 
charge  precludes  the  use  of  new  expensive  films. 
Industrial  Uses  of  the  Film 
A  very  important  use  of  the  motion  picture  in 
China  is  for  advertising  purposes.  This  may  prove 
its  most  profitable  field.  One  of  the  large  tobacco 
companies  is  now  taking  pictures  in  China  anl 
showing  them  free  to  purchasers  of  cigarettes. 
American  firms  have  furnished  commercial  and 
industrial  films  for  circulation  by  the  American 
commercial  attache  at  Peking,  or  for  private  ex- 
hibition by  their  agents  in  China  to  prospective 
purchasers  of  their  products.  The  Young  Men's 
Christian  Association  in  Shanghai  has  facilities  for 
distributing  educational,  commercial,  and  indus- 
trial films  to  its  branches  throughout  the  country 
and  also  to  kindred   organizations. 

Native  Production  Versus  Imported  Films 
The  first  motion-picture  drama  produced  in 
China  with  a  native  cast  was  screened  July  1,  1921, 
at  the  Olympic  Theater,  Shanghai,  by  the  Chinese 
Motion  Picture  Society.  For  this  10-reel  feature, 
called  "Abuse  of  Rich  Ornaments,"  the  admission 
charges  were  from  Yuan  1  (U.  S.  $0.50)  to  2 
(U.  S.  $1).  Based  upon  a  notorious  murder  case, 
the  picturization  adhered  very  closely  to  the  evi- 
dence, showing  everything  that  happened  from  the 
origin  of  the  motive  to  the  execution  of  the  mur- 
derers. Large  crowds  attended  the  performances, 
given  twice  daily  for  a  week. 

The  difficulty  involved  in  taking  motion  pictures 
in  China  is  the  high  cost  of  production  compared 
with  limited  exhibition  facilities.  According  to 
those  familiar  with  the  business  in  Shanghai,  films 
can  be  imported  at  from  Ij  cent  to  6  cents  United 
States  currency  per  foot,  and  it  costs  from  $5  to 
$10  per  foot  to  produce  them.  The  prices  charged 
for  American  films,  arranged  by  the  exchanges 
with  the  individual  theaters,  vary  according  to 
seating  capacity,  admission  fees,  and  drawing  pow- 
er of  the  feature  offered. 

It  has  been  found  unsatisfactory  to  insert  Chinese 
subtitles  in  American  films ;  too  much  space  is 
required  to  convey  the  idea.  Instead,  native  in- 
terpreters verbally  explain  the  pictures  to  Chinese 
audiences,  and  a  synopsis  of  the  story  is  printed 
in  Chinese  in  the  theater  program. 
Import  Conditions 
The  most  satisfactory  and  economical  method  of 
shipping  films  to  China  is  on  spools  wrapped  in 
stout  paper  and  packed  in  tin-lined  boxes.  It  is 
cheaper  to  buy  reel  cans  in  China,  where  they  cost 
only  Yuan  $0.40  (U.  S.  $0.20)  each.  Films  are 
usually  sent  through  the  Chinese  post  office  (a 
very  efficient  institution)  in  packages  containing 
two  reels. 

Although  the  Chinese  market  was  said  to  be 
flooded  with  all  kinds  of  films  from  various  Amer- 
ican producers  in  the  late  summer  of  1921,  several 
Shanghai  exchanges  reported  steadily  increasing 
business.  Exports  of  exposed  motion-picture  films 
from  the  United  States  to  China  covered  1,500  reels 
in  1919  and  2,700  reels  in  1920;  many  others  came 
through  Japan.  German  and  Italian  photoplays 
were  shown  in  Shanghai  during  1921,  but  did  not 
seem   to  enjoy   the  popularity   of  American  films. 

Fifteen  firms  in  Shanghai  import  films  and  six 
exchanges  circulate  them.  Hongkong  and  Tientsin 
are  other  exchange  centers.  Among  the  concerns 
taking  motion  pictures  in  China  are  the  Commercial 
Press,  a  large  Chinese  publishing  organization  with 
its  main  office  in  Shanghai  and  branches  in  many 
other  cities ;  and  Pathe-Orient,  a  well-known 
French  company.  As  yet  there  is  no  record  of  a 
studio  in  China  comparable  with  the  elaborate 
establishments    in    the   United    States. 


Estimate  of  the  Field  in  China 
In  estimating  the  motion-picture  field  in  China — 
the  opportunity  for  circulating  dramatic  films  at  a 
profit— the  survey  must  be  confined  to  cities  served 
by  rail  or  regular  steamship  service.  Along  the 
7,000  miles  of  railroad,  the  1,800  miles  of  seacoast 
from  Tientsin  to  Canton,  and  the  600-mile  section 
of  the  Yangtsze  River  from  the  sea  to  Hankow, 
there  are  perhaps  75  cities  that  have  a  population 
of  100,000  or  more  where  motion  pictures  might 
be  shown  if  theaters  were  established.  The  large 
majority  of  the  papulation  can  not  afiford  to  pay 
the  admission  that  must  be  charged  in  order  to 
make  the  exhibition  of  American  films  profitable. 
Motion-picture  men  in  China  place  the  proportion 
at  5  per  cent,  which  means  a  total  prospective 
audience  of  between  one  and  two  million  in  the 
75  accessible  cities. 

Motion  pictures  of  greatest  interest  to  the  Chi- 
nese are  naturally  those  in  which  Chinese  actors 
appear.  It  is  probable,  however,  that  the  develo^)- 
ment  of  motion-picture  producing  in  China  will  be 
even  slower  than  that  of  film  exhibiting ;  and  the 
latter  is  handicapped  by  two  significant  factors — 
the  Chinese  generally  have  weak  eyes  and  some- 
times have  difficulty  in  seeing  pictures  clearly,  and 
they  are  exceedingly  fond  of  bright  lights  and 
abundant  noise.  It  is  a  question  whether  the  dark 
motion-picture  theater  with  its  foreign  music  will 
ever  compete  seriously  with  the  native  playhouse, 
where  the  lights  are  never  lowered  and  where  a 
blatant    native   orchestra   produces   continual   din. 

GREECE 

All  the  motion  pictures  used  in  Greece,  with  the 
exception  of  some  news  reels  and  propaganda 
films,  are  imported  from  abroad.  While  the  ma- 
jority of  the  pictures  imported  come  from  France, 
England  and  America,  the  German  product  is  also 
in   evidence. 

There  is  no  censorship  in  Greece,  nor  are  the 
theater  owners  required  to  have  a  license,  as  it  is 
the  rule  in  most  of  the  other  European  coimtries. 
If  the  public  does  not  approve  of  a  film,  for  one 
reason   or    other,    the   police   steps    in   and   stops   it. 

The  government  subsidizes  the  production  of 
scenic   and  propaganda   films. 

In  Athens  there  are  a  number  of  foreign  con- 
cerns represented :  Pathe  through  Mr.  Mar- 
gulis,  Gaimiont  through  Mr.  Leon  Schneider, 
Mosco  &  Gaitis  as  well  as  a  Mr.  Masoni  represent 
Italian  productions.  Furthermore,  the  big  Ger- 
man and  Austrian  concerns  have  either  their  own 
branches   or   agents   there. 

Athens  boasts  of  9  theaters  with  a  seating  ca- 
pacity ranging  from  500  to  1200  people  and  a 
few  open  air  theaters  seating  1500  to  4000.  At 
the  latter  no  admission  is  charged.  Food  and 
drinks  are  served.  The  prices  in  the  closed  houses 
vary  from  1.80  to  2.50  drachmen,  of  which  the 
government   collects    a   tax   of   25%. 

The  rentals  range  from  40  to  160  lepta  a  meter 
per  week. 

In  all  of  Greece  there  are  about  40  motion  pic- 
ture houses  of  which  15  have  a  seating  capacity 
of   1000,  5  of  800,  20  from  300  to   500. 

Owing  to  lack  of  native  production  there  is  no 
trade  paper,  but  nevertheless,  according  to  a  re- 
port in  the  International  Filmschau,  interest  in 
the  film  industry  is  very  strong  and  additional 
theaters  are  planned  everywhere.  Big  financial 
interests  intend  organizing  a  domestic  producing 
company. 

INDIA 

Report  by  Consul  General  Alexander  W.  Wed- 
dell,    Calcutta: 

The  demand  in  India  for  American  motion  pic- 
tures has  shown  a  steady  increase  during  the 
past  few  years.  There  are  at  present  168  motion 
picture  houses,  or  cinema  shows,  in  India,  Burma, 
and  Ceylon.  In  Calcutta  there  are  16  theaters 
showing  American  films,  5  being  patronized  chiefly 
by  the  European  population,  and  11  by  the  natives. 

There  are  two  distinct  communities  to  be  con- 
sidered— the  Indian  and  the  European — each  with 
Its  separate  taste  and  demanding  a  different  type 
of  film.  The  natives  like  pictures  v^fith  dare-devil 
features,  serials  with  a  thrilling  story,  or  slap- 
stick   comedy ;    the    other    class    of    patrons    prefer 


422 


modern  society  dramas ;  spectacular  stories,  an- 
cient historical  subjects,  classics  from  fiction,  and 
adaptations    of    famous    stage    successes. 

The  average  price  paid  in  India  for  a  good 
American  film  is  approximately  5,000  rupees 
($1,200),  which  includes  the  original  cost  of  the 
film,  payment  for  royalties,  a  20  per  cent  import 
duty,  and  incidental  charges.  As  there  are  few 
"first  run"  cinemas  in  India,  it  is  almost  im- 
possible to  realize  the  purchase  cost  from  rentals 
>paid;  the  latter  averages  100  rupees  per  cinema, 
and  but  few  renting  houses  in  India  supply  films 
to   more    than    20   cinemas. 

It  generally  happens  that  the  importer  pays  $750 
for  exhibitor  rights  and  $250  for  the  film  itseilf ;  he 
complains  of  this  high  value  put  upon  exhibition 
rights,  suggesting  for  a  country  like  India  that  the 
price  paid  for  exhibition  rights  should  never  ex- 
ceed the  cost  of  print  of  the  film  itself.  He  also 
desires  the  period  of  these  rights  be  extended  from 
three  years,  as  now  generally  the  case,  to  at 
least  five,  otherwise  the  purchase  cost  can  hardly 
be  realized. 

Theater  managers  assert  that  American  films 
are  far  superior  to  others  in  lighting,  acting,  and 
scenic  eflfects,  all  of  which  are  more  extravagant 
than  films  of  foreign  manufacture ;  but  certain  un- 
desirable features  in  subject  matter  have  occasioned 
unfavorable   comment   in   India. 

One  exhibitor  states  that  there  are  far  too  many 
American  films  which  feature  the  baser  side  of 
human  nature.  He  comments  on  the  fact  that  of 
the  films  either  banned  or  trimmed  by  the  censor- 
ship boards  the  larger  proportion  are  American. 
Another  mistake  which  American  producers  make 
when  dealing  with  Indian  subjects  is  the  confusing 
of  Hindus  with  Mohammedans,  rajahs  with  nawabs 
and  so  on — the  effect  being  disastrous  to  the  story. 

JAVA 

Consul  Parker  W.  Buhrman,  Soerabaya,  re- 
ports: Reports  from  practically  all  parts  of 
the  world  emphasize  the  popularity  of  Amer- 
ican motion  pictures  and  American  actors  and 
actresses.  The  nationality  of  the  audiences 
and  the  nationality  of  the  theater  owner  seem 
to  make  little  difference.  In  Java,  where  there 
are  250  theaters  and  the  audiences  are  com- 
posed' of  three  distinct  classes  (Europeans, 
Chinese,  and  natives),  American  films  are  in 
the  majority,  and  it  is  said  that  no  other  films 
compare  with  them  in  popularity.  One  of  the 
largest  theaters  is  built  to  seat  2,000  Euro- 
peans and  2,500  natives.  The  theaters  are 
so  constructed  that  the  screen  divides  it  into 
two  parts — the  Europeans  and  foreign  orientals 
sitting  on  one  side  of  the  curtain  and  the 
natives  on  the  other.  The  picture  is  projected 
from    the    side    of    the    Europeans. 

Censorship  in  the  Netherlands  Indies  is  severe 
and  does  not  permit  any  criminal  or  political 
suggestion.  The  "Wild  West"  pictures,  which 
would  be  very  popular  with  the  natives,  are 
not  allowed,  nor  is  any  picture  perimitted  in 
which  the  question  of  nationality  is  handled 
in  an  objectional  way.  About  35  per  cent  of 
the  pictures  imported  into  the  Netherlands 
East  Indies  are  either  refused  or  cut  by  the 
censors.  In  response  to  representations  made 
by  the  film  exhibitors,  in  Java,  a  change  has 
been  proposed  in  the  censorship  regulations, 
which  will  allow  the  film  to  be  censored  before 
the  payment  of  duties.  Previous  to  this  time 
there  has  been  no  provision  for  the  refund  of 
duties  paid  on  films  which  were  not  allowed 
to    be    shown    by    the    importing    exhibitors. 

Language  presents  a  serious  difficulty.  Prob- 
ably a  Malay  text  would,  in  general,  be  most 
satisfactory  for  exhibition  to  natives.  Many 
films  that  are  now  being  shown  are  in  both 
Dutch  and  English  tex!t.  The  native,  not 
understanding  either  language,  is  at  a  disad- 
vantage. Accordingly,  news  events  of  the  world 
and  current  topics  are  in  very   slight  demand. 

JAPAN 
Report  by  Martin  G.  Scott,  clerk  to  Trade 
Commissioner,  Tokyo:  The  motion  picture  in- 
dustry in  Japan  has  had  a  remarkable  de- 
velopment in  the  past  few  years.  As  far  back 
as   1914  or   1915  foreign   films,  chiefly  American, 


were    growing  in    favor   in   Japan   and    they    have 
continued    to   increase    in    popularity. 

There  are  in  Japan  about  600  theaters  giving 
regular  performances  and  about  2,000  more 
giving  occasional  performances.  From  the 
standpoint  of  imported  films,  however,  only  the 
600  need  be  considered.  Of  these,  Tokyo  has 
about  50  houses,  Osaka  30,  Kobe  15  and  Kyoto 
10,  the  remainder  being  scattered  throughout 
the  country.  These  theaters  seat  between  500 
and  1,800.  The  term  "seating  capacity"  is  a 
misnomer,  as  in  many  houses  the  lower  price 
of  admission  entitles  one  to  standing  room  only. 
Most  houses  give  one  performance  a  day,  al- 
though some,  such  as  the  large  houses  in 
Akusaka  Park  (the  "Coney  Island"  of  Tokyo), 
give  continuous  performances  and  appear  to 
be    always    crowded. 

Of  the  600  theaters,  the  so-called  trust,  the 
Nippon  Katsudoshashin  Kabushiki  Kaisha,  owns 
or  controls  about  350.  The  trust  is  by  far 
the  largest  moving-picture  company  in  Japan. 
It  owns  or  controls  a  majority  of  the  theaters, 
in  many  cases  owning  the  buildings.  It  rents 
the  theaters,  supplies  films  and  machines, 
usually  on  a  percentage  basis,  and  sometimes 
exercises  a  supervision  over  the  show.  Its 
percentage  of  the  profits  varies  with  the 
theater.  The  trust  has  at  present  two  studios, 
one  in  Kyoto  and  one  near  Tokyo,  with  a  force 
of  100  actors  and  50  camera  men,  directors,  etc. 
In  addition  to  the  theaters,  films  are  in  de- 
mand for  Y.  M.  C.  A.  performances,  private 
entertainments,  etc.,  though  it  is  hard  to  esti- 
mate  the   total   volume   of   this   business. 

As  an  index  of  the  popularity  of  the  motion 
picture,  Tokyo's  50  film  theaters  play  annually 
to  over  10,000,000  people,  while  the  20  legiti- 
mate theaters,  with  much  larger  seating  capaci- 
tise,  play  to  somewhat  less  than  5,000,000. 
These  20  legitimate  theaters  give  almost  ex- 
clusively Japanese  plays.  Two,  however,  the 
Imperial  Theater  and  the  Yurakuza,  accasionally 
give  foreign  plays  and  at  times  show  motion 
pictures.  These  two  theaters  have  seats  ar- 
ranged in  foreign  style.  There  seems  to  be  no 
question  but  that  the  moving  picture  has  hurt 
the  regular  theater  business  in  Japan  to  a 
considerable  extent,  but  there  has  been  no 
such  desertion  by  actors  of  the  stage  for  the 
film  as  in  America,  probably  on  account  of  the 
intense  pride  which  the  Japanese  actor  takes 
in    his    profession. 

For  the  better-class  theaters  the  admission 
charge  runs  from  0.50  to  1.50  yen  (25  to  75 
cents),  though  for  some  performances  as  high 
as  3  yen  ($1.50)  will  be  charged.  The  smaller 
ones  charge  from  30  to  50  sen  (15  to  25  cents), 
though  some  prices  are  as  low  as  10  sen  (5 
cents).  The  average  price  for  all  will  probably 
he  in  the  neighborhood  of  50  sen  (25  cents). 
Children  ivnder  15  (where  admitted  at  all)  and 
soldiers    are    usually    admitted    at    half    rates. 

Programs  are  changed  weekly.  The  rental 
charge  varies  widely,  running  from  $100  to 
$600  per  month,  depending  on  the  theater  and 
the  class  of  film  shown.  For  special  films 
an  e-xtra  charge  is  usually  made.  The  pro- 
grams are  long;  those  for  the  better  class 
theaters  will  include  two  pictures  of  about  six 
reels  (sometimes  both  foreign,  sometimes  one, 
while  some  theaters  show  exclusively  Japanese 
films),  a  weekly  news  letter  a  comedy,  and  two 
or  three  episodes  of  a  serial  film  (usually  an 
exciting  melodrama).  The  trust  states  that  for 
a  first-class  foreign  film  they  often  secure  $200 
per  week,  and  for  individual  performances  from 
$25  to  $35.  The  larger  Japanese  companies 
usually  buy  their  films  outright  and  then  sup- 
ply them  to  their  different  theaters.  A  film 
on  the  trust  circuit  will  last  a  little  over  a 
year  and  then  it  is  stored.  There  is  little  or 
no  sale  for  films  after  they  have  made  the 
rounds.  Films  are  dutiable  at  8.25  yen  per 
kin  ($3.10  per  pound),  including  inner  packing. 
Complaints  are  made  of  pirating  of  films, 
and  apparently  with  some  foundation,  as  many 
individuals  make  a  business  of  obtaining  films 
in  various  ways  and  selling  them  outright.  As 
there  is  practically  no  redress  for  this  sort  of 
thing.  American  companies  should  take  every  pos- 
sible    precaution     to     safeguard     their    productions.

THE    NETHERLANDS 
A   survey  by   George  E.  Anderson,    Consul-General 

Rotterdam,  February  27,  1922:  All  in  all,  it 
may  fairly  be  said  that  the  moving  picture  busi- 
ness in  The  Netherlands  is  improving,  out  it  should 
be  understood  in  connection  with  this  statement 
that  an  immense  further  improvement  is  possible. 
It  is  doubtful  if  there  is  a  country  in  Europe  or, — 
education,  situation,  organization  and  all  con- 
sidered,— in  the  world,  where  the  moving  picture 
has  less  of  a  part  in  national  life  than  in  Holland. 
*  *  *  For  every  moving  picture  theater  in  Holland, 
there  are  perhaps  a  dozen  cafes  of  corresponding 
size,  some  of  them  running  into  thousands  in 
capacity,  which  are  crowded  nightly,  the  enter- 
tainments in  which  range  from  a  fair  grade  of 
vaudeville  entertainment  with  quite  good  music, 
down  to  a  worn  out  graphophone.  Only  a  few 
if  any  of  the  Dutch  theaters  have  made  any  profits 
during  the  year,  and  development  in  the  face  61 
losses  or  small  or  no  profits  is  not  easy.  The 
entire  business  in  Holland  at  the  present  time 
is  on  a  more  or  less  experimental  basis.  It  is 
well  organized,  both  from  the  film  producers  and 
the  theater  operators  standpoint.  The  operators 
have  an  organization  known  as  the  '"Federative 
Bond,"  which  includes  practically  every  theater 
operator  in  the  country.  It  is  a  closely  knit 
organization  and  practically  controls  the  trade  from 
a  theater  operating  standpoint.  The  renting  or 
releasing  agencies  also  have  a  similar  organiza- 
tion, and  the  two  organizations  have  organized 
an  arbitration  committee,  the  "Commissee  van 
Gescliillen,"  which  arbitrates  disputes  between 
members  of  the  two  organizations.  Both  renters 
and  operators  are  represented  on  this  board  and 
its  awards  are  enforced  by  the  boycotting  of  any 
recalcitrant   member   of   either   parent   organization. 

There  are  twenty-two  film  renting  concerns  in 
Holland.  Of  these  ten  are  branch  houses  of  Ger- 
man film  renting  or  producing  concerns  which 
are  attempting,  with  poor  success,  to  introduce 
German  films  into  Holland  on  the  basis  of  very 
low  prices.  Films  produced  in  Germany  on  the 
basis  of  the  low  value  of  the  mark  naturally  can 
be  rented  very  cheaply  in  Holland.  Some  are  of 
comparatively  high  grade  and  are  popular,  but 
the  ordinary  productions  are  so  inferior  that  few 
Dutch  theater  operators  use  many  of  them.  The 
other  renting  establishments  import  their  films 
mostly  from  the  United  States  and  Great  Britain 
with  a  few  from  Italy.  Those  from  the  United 
States  come  direct  and  through  Great  Britain. 
Up  to  two  years  ago  most  of  the  American  films 
came  by  way  of  Great  Britain,  but  at  present 
about  50%  of  them  come  direct.  Conditions  in 
the  trade  have  been  such  as  to  eliminate  the  for- 
mation of  fly-by-night  renting  concerns,  most  of 
which  have  been  attempting  to  handle  these  cheap 
German  films  or  films  bought  up  in  other  countries 
with  low  exchange  for  a  song,  and  thus  leading 
to  a  disproportionate  number  of  renting  agencies 
compared  with  the  number  of  theaters.  Most  of 
these  concerns  really  merit  no  attention  on  the 
part  of  the  producing  interests  and  are  indeed 
receiving    none. 

There  are  170  licensed  film  theaters  in  The 
Netherlands  together  with  something  over  fifty- 
five  other  theaters,  town  halls,  and  society  rooms 
where  films  are  occasionally  shown.  The  average 
seating  capacity  of  these  theaters  is  perhaps  360. 
The  price  of  admission  varies  from  IS  Dutch 
cents  to  2.50  guilders  or  the  equivalent  of  6  cents 
American  currency  to  $1.00  according  to  the 
theater,  the  attraction  and  the  seats  occupied.  A 
first-class  seat  for  an  average  production  will 
average  perhaps  sixty  American  cents  in  cost, 
while  the  average  for  all  Holland  will  be  some- 
thing like  20  cents  American  currency.  The  aver- 
age audience  will  not  exceed  50%  of  the  seat- 
ing capacity  of  the  theater.  On  Saturdays  and 
Sundays  most  of  them  are  packed  to  the  limit 
of  their  capacity.  On  other  days  attendance  is 
usually  very  light.  The  standard  tax  authorized 
by  -  the  national  government  is  20%,  but  the 
actual  tax  is  fixed  by  the  municipal  authorities 
in  each  town  with  the  result  that  the  tax  varies 
from  20%  to  as  high  as  40%.  As  a  rule,  the 
municipal  authorities  in  the  smaller  cities  and 
towns  in  Holland  are  not  favorable  to  the  moving 
picture   theater.      No   explanation    for   this  fact  can 


be  offered  but  the  fact  stands  for  itself.  The 
authorities  in  the  larger  cities  are  more  favorably 
inclined,- — for  the  incidental  revenue  they  derive 
from   them  if   for  no   other  reason. 

In  the  theaters  as  they  exist  and  with  the 
business  progressing  slowly  against  these  draw- 
backs, the  American  film  has  come  to  have  a 
rather  extraordinary  vogue.  The  entertainment 
most  in  favor  is  a  social  drama  of  good  character, 
not  too  sensational  but  with  gripping,  heart  touch 
qualities.  The  American  film  has  been  par- 
ticularly successful  in  this  line  with  the  result 
that  by  far  the  larger  portion  of  the  films  now 
shown  are  of  American  manufacture,  perhaps 
60%    of   the   whole. 

The  matter  of  price  of  a  film  is  of  more  than 
ordinary  importance  in  Holland,  and  for  this  rea- 
son there  has  been  more  use  of  films  from  Germany 
and  other  countries  with  low  value  currencies 
than  there  would  have  been  otherwise.  The  high 
exchange  value  of  the  American  dollar  has  inter- 
fered with  the  placing  of  American  films  in  this 
field  as  much  as  it  has  interfered  with  any  other 
line    of    American    business. 

Films  are  placed  in  Holland  by  leasing  by  the 
week  and  the  lease  hire  is  at  a  price  per  meter  of 
films.  The  price  varies  from  one  Dutch  cent, 
or  $.004  American  currency,  to  25  Dutch  cents, 
or  10  cents  American,  per  meter  per  week  and 
exceptional  films  bring  as  high  as  30  to  35  Dutch 
cents,  or  12  or  14  American  cents,  per  meter. 
The  price  depends  upon  the  city,  previous  ex- 
hibitions and  similar  factors.  A  high  grade  film 
will  bring  from  25  to  35  Dutch  cents  per  meter 
per  week  when  first  produced  in  these  large  cities. 
It  will  then  be  passed  along  to  smaller  cities 
like  Utrecht  where  the  charge  will  be  something 
like  ten  Dutch  cents,  then  to  Groningen  which 
may  pay  8  cents,  to  Haarlem,  which  may  pay  five 
cents,  and  a  little  city  like  Sneek  may  pay  only 
one  Dutch  cent  a  meter.  The  price  also  naturally 
depends  upon  whether  the  film  has  been  used  to 
any  considerable  extent  in  the  country  or  else- 
where and   upon   its  actual  mechanical  condition. 

The  production  of  films  in  Holland  so  far  has 
not  been  much  of  a  success.  Practically  the  whole 
of  the  work  done  in  the  way  of  the  picture  drama 
in  Holland  has  been  done  at  Haarlem  by  the 
"Hollandia"  Filmabriek,  operated  by  the  Anglo- 
Dutch  Film  Corp.  There  is  also  one  film  com- 
pany in  Amsterdam  known  as  the  American 
Film   Co. 

It  must  be  confessed  that  the  films  now  being 
presented  to  the  Dutch  public  are  far  from  being 
up-to-date.  In  the  cheaper  theaters  there  is  a 
demand  for  rather  lurid  sensational  plays  with 
blood  curdling  concomitants  but  these,  though  in 
demand  for  a  certain  clientele,  can  hardly  be  said 
to  be  characteristic  plays  of  the  day.  There  is 
comparatively  small  demand  for  news  of  the  day 
in  films.  In  the  past  few  months  there  has  been 
a  distinct  effort  on  the  part  of  some  of  the  theater 
operators  in  the  country  to  bring  their  entertain- 
ments up-to-date,  and  some  of  the  rental  agencies 
have  sent  representatives  into  Germany,  France 
and  England  to  buy  the  latest  films  available. 
Only  one  of  these  concerns,  however,  has  sent  a 
representative  to  the  United  States.  One  of  the 
theaters  in  The  Hague  sent  a  man  to  the  United 
States  last  year  to  learn  the  operation  of  two 
projection  machines  at  the  same  time  so  that 
films  are  screened  without  interruption  between 
the  parts.  Mechanically  and  in  nearly  all  other 
respects  the  industry  on  the  whole  in  Holland 
is  at  least  five  years  behind  the  times. 

SONORA,     MEXICO 

A  survey  of  the  industry  in  Sonora  was  made 
by  Vice  Consul  Harold  C.  Wood,  of  the  American 
Consulate  at  Guaymas,  Mexico.  It  shows  that 
70%  of  all  the  pictures  shown  in  the  State  of 
Sonora  are  American  made.     Says  Mr.  Wood: 

Among  the  Mexicans  of  all  classes  the  serial 
is  most  popular.  The  serial  pictures  are  not 
exhibited  one  episode  at  a  performance,  as  is  the 
custom  in  the  United  States,  but  owing  to  the 
fact  that  the  films  are  exhibited  in  a  motion  pic- 
ture circuit  from  Mazatlan,  Sinaloa,  to  Nogales, 
Sonora,  they  must  necessarily  be  shown  as  quickly 
as  possible,  and  therefore  six  or  seven  episodes 
are   shown   in   an   evening.      If   the   serial   is   a    long 


424 


one    its    exhibition    will    be    concluded    in    less    than 
a   week. 

Next  in  favor  are  the  comedies  of  the  slapstick 
variety.  These  comedies  are  much  liked  by  the 
lower  classes,  who  constitute  the  majority  of  the 
motion  picture  patrons.  However,  the  more  edu- 
cated and  refined  Mexicans  prefer  the  heavy  and 
romantic  dramas,   or  a  comedy  of  the  lighter  type. 

Source    of    Supply 

About  seventy  per  cent  of  the  pictures  shown 
here  are  of  American  make,  and  the  remaining 
thirty  per  cent  are  distributed  equally  among 
German,   French   and   Italian  pictures. 

As  a  rule,  a  town  of  5,000  cannot  support  more 
than  one  motion  picture  theater.  Guaymas,  with 
a  population  of  8,000,  has  had  several  new  mo- 
tion picture  theaters  started,  but  they  have  all 
failed  with  the  exception  of  the  Cine  Majestic, 
which  is  now  the  only  one  in  operation  and  which 
does  a  good  business.  Hermosillo,  the  State 
Capital,  with  a  population  of  12,000,  supports 
three  motion  picture  theaters.  The  Salon  Atenas, 
with  a  seating  capacity  of  1,100;  the  Teatro 
Noriega,  seating  1,600,  and  the  Cine  Sonora,  which 
can  seat  2,000  persons.  The  Cine  Majestic,  in 
Guaymas,  has  two  hundred  so-called  orchestra 
seats  and  400  seats  in  the  gallery.  The  seats — 
both  orchestra  and  gallery — are  most  uncom- 
fortable. The  Benito  Juarez  Theater  in  Emnalme, 
an  American  railroad  town,  seats  about  400  per- 
sons. 

In  Hermosillo  the  prices  of  admission,  in  Mexi- 
can  money,   are  as   follows  : 

Salon  Atenas,  $.30  first  class,  $.20  second 
class. 

Teatro  Noriega,  $1.00  first  class,  $.50  second 
class. 

Cine   Sonora,    $.20   first   class,   $.10,   second   class. 

In  Empalme  the  prices  are  $.50  first  class  and 
$.25  second  class. 

In  Guaymas,  the  Cine  Majestic  charges  $.50 
first  class.  These  prices  are  variable,  however, 
depending  on  the  film  shown  and  the  addition  of 
extra  attractions,  such  as  an  additional  orchestra, 
etc. 

All  the  pictures  shown  in  this  district  are  con- 
trolled by  Sr.  Guillermo  Ascona,  Apartado,  52, 
.\lat7a'an,  Sinaloa.  This  firm  distributes  pic- 
tures through  the  States  of  Sonora,  Sinaloa, 
Mayarit  and   Baja   California. 

At  the  Guaymas  customhouse  the  following 
duties  are  quoted :  Blank  films  pay  a  duty  of 
$1.50,  Mex.,  per  net  kilogram.  All  advertising 
matter  that  is  in  film  form  pays  $1.50,  Mex.  per 
net  kilogram.  Lithographed  or  printed  posters 
for  advertising  purposes  pay  a  duty  of  $.30  Mex., 
per  kilogram. 

NORWAY 

George  Nicholas  Ifft,  American  Consul  at 
Bergen,    Norway,    reports  : 

Bergen,  a  city  of  slightly  less  than  100.000 
population,  has  seven  moving  picture  theaters,  six 
of  which  are  open  seven  days  in  the  week  from 
5  to  11  P.  M.  and  one  only  on  Saturday  and 
Sunday  evenings  between  the  same  hours.  They 
have  a  combined  seating  capacity  of  about  4,000 
and  films  are  run  from  three  to  four  *:imes  daily. 
The  standard  price  of  admission  is  Kroner  1.25 
(at  normal  exchange,  35  cents),  which  price  is 
sometimes  raised  to  Kroner  1.50  and  Kroner  2.00 
(40  and  53  cents)  for  special  pictures.  The  mov- 
ing picture  houses  are  all  municipal  and  are  oper- 
ated directly  by  the  municipality,  through  a  muni- 
cipal bureau,  with  a  director  at  its  head. 

Statistics  of  the  operations  of  these  municipal 
theaters  for  the  calendar  year  1921  show  that  the 
total  attendance  for  the  year  was  1,815,960.  This 
is  slightly  more  than  twenty-three  per  cent  less 
than  the  attendance  in  1920.  The  total  receipts 
from  the  sale  of  tickets  was  Kroner  2,180,475  (at 
normal  exchange  $583.5671.  This  is  a  little  more 
than  th:rteen  per  cent  less  than  the  gross  income 
of    the    preceding   year. 

Fully  seventy-five  per  cent  of  the  films  shown  in 
Bergen  arc  of  American  origin.  A  year  ago.  Amer- 
ican nicti-res  made  up  ninety  per  cent  of  the  total 
but  Swedish,  Danish  and  German  films  are  grow- 
ing in  favor  and  a  few  good  Norwegian  films  are 
also  being  produced  and  are  enthusiastically  re- 
ceived. 


PORTUGAL 

Survey  made  by  the  American  Consul  General, 
W.   Stanley  Hollis,  at  Lisbon.     Says  Mr.   Mollis : 

American  made  motion  picture  films  are  becom- 
ing continually  more  popular  in  Portugal,  in  spite 
of  the  efiforts  of  local  manufacturers  to  provide 
Portuguese  films,  and  it  is  estimated  that  at  the 
present  time  nearly  three-quarters  of  the  films 
exhibited  in  Portugal  are  of  American  manufacture, 
with  the  legends,  or  reading  matter,  translated 
into    Portugese. 

Melodramatic  serials  and  good  comedies  are 
especially  popular,  although  this  is  believed  to  be 
due  to  the  fact  that  the  better  grades  of  more 
recently  made  pictures  are  too  expensive  for  ex- 
hibition in  this  country,  and  the  public  is  there- 
fore  unable   to   make   comparisons. 

The  only  film  distributor  of  importance  in 
Lisbon  is  the  Companhia  Cinematografica  de  Por- 
tugal, which  practically  enjoys  a  monopoly  of 
this  market.  This  Company  secures  its  films 
through  the  Companhia  Cinematografica  Hispano- 
Portuguesa  S.  A.  of  Madrid,  Spain.  The  firm 
in  Madrid  is  accustomed  to  secure  the  distribution 
rights  for  the  entire  peninsula,  and  in  turn  to 
sub-let  these  rights  in  Portugal  to  the  Companhia 
Cinematografica   de   Portugal. 

Lisbon  has  three  motion  picture  theaters  cap- 
able of  seating  about  800  persons  each,  besides 
thirteen  smaller  houses  with  an  approximate 
capacity  of  400  each.  It  is  estimated  that  there 
are  about  120  motion  picture  theaters  in  the  whole 
of  Portugal. 

An  ad  valorem  duty  of  15%,  plus  15%,  plus 
600%,  is  charged  on  motion  picture  films  im- 
ported into  Portugal,  making  the  custom  duty 
amount  actually   to    180%   ad  valorem. 

Printed  matter  in  large  quantities,  photographs 
of  various  colors  and  lithographic  posters  pay  a 
duty  of  $100  per  kilo,  which,  in  conformity  with 
Decree  No.  7,826,  is  payabble  in  gold,  or  its 
equivalent  in  paper  escudos,  at  present  being 
equal,  in  British  currency,  to  about  £0.4.6.  To 
the  above  amount  an  additional  tax  of  Escudos 
00$30.  gold,  is  charged  in  conformity  with  De- 
cree   No.    4133,   of  April   18,    1918. 

Photographs  of  one  color  pay  a  duty  of  Escudos 
00$04.  gold,  per  kilo,  with  an  additional  tax  of 
Esc.   00$01. 

Lisbon,  the  capital  of  Portugal,  has  a  popula- 
tion of  nearly  500,000,  and  is  of  first  importance 
as  a  market  for  films.  Oporto  is  the  second  city, 
with  200,000.  and  in  addition  to  these  there  are 
numerous  smaller  towns,  all  of  which  are  develop- 
ing an  increasing  interest  in  motion  pictures. 
No  film  or  motion  picture  journals  are  as  yet 
published    in    this    country. 

Some  films  showing  News  Events  of  the  World, 
have   been   very   well   received   by   the  public. 

The  Portugalia  Film,  an  organization  for  the 
manufacture  of  all  Portuguese  films,  will  prob- 
ably, in  the  near  future,  be  in  a  position  to  fur- 
nish films  of  News  Events  of  this  country,  if  a 
profitable    market    is    found    for    them    in    foreign 

countries.  ^.TTiiir  a -mt  a 

RUMANIA 

There  is  no  film  production  in  Rumania  but  all 
big  international  companies  have  either  a  branch 
or  are  represented  through  some  exchange  sit- 
uated in  Bucharest.  The  largest  theater  in  that 
city  is  the  "Pathe  Palace."  which  seats  1200  on 
two  separate  projection  floors.  The  first  reel  runs 
upstairs  while  the  second  is  being  shown  on  the 
other  floor.  The  admission  prices  range  from  15 
to  30  lei.  Film  rentals  run  about  20.000  lei  week- 
ly. The  city  also  contains  6  second  and  16  third 
class  houses. 

While  there  is  no  definite  censorship  in  Rumania, 
it  is  required  to  submit  a  list  of  titles  to  the  dis- 
trict police,  and  according  to  reports  in  feoreign 
trade  papers  a  settlement  is  usually  reached  with 
the  police  by   what  is  termed  "friendly  agreement." 

The  import  duty  on  films  is  10  lei  per  kilo  plus 
2'r  ad  valorem,  the  export  duty  22%  ad  valorem. 
The  amusement  fax  amovnts  to  25 ""r  on  the  gross 
income  and  is  very  accurately  checked  up,  in  that 
way  helping  the  exchangeman  who  rents  out  on 
percentage.  The  rights  for  Rrmania  ar^  oflfercd 
bv  German,  Austrian  and  Hungarian  firms  as 
low  as  10.000  to  15.000  lei,  while  for  real  first 
class  films  30,000  to  40,000  lei  may  be  obtained.

SWEDEN 

Originally  appearing  in  "The  Swedish  Export," 
a  periodical  published  by  the  General  Export  As- 
sociation of  Sweden.     The  data   follows  : 

Sweden  is  of  all  the  countries  in  the  world  the 
one  best  supplied  with  motion  picture  houses — 
"Biographs,"  according  to  the  local  designation, 
and  "going  to  Bio"  is  the  national  pastime  most 
intensely  pursued  at  present.  With  a  population 
around  six  millions  there  were  at  the  end  of 
1919  not  less  than  600  playhouses  of  that  kind 
in  full  swing,  in  addition  to  a  number  of  peram- 
bulating picture  shows.  Stockholm  itself,  with 
about  500,000  inhabitants,  has  something  like  75 
picture  houses.  Playgoers  to  picture  shows 
numbered  60,000,000  in  1919  for  the  whole  country, 
but  this  figure;  has  shrunk  considerably  since  that 
time. 

The  two  principal  importing  and  producing  con- 
cerns, Svenska  Biografteatern  and  Skandia,  joined 
forces  in  1919,  the  amalgamation  being  now  styled 
Aktiebolaget  Svensk  Filmindustri,  with  a  joint 
capital  of  35,000,000  kronor.  The  head  of  the 
company  is  Charles  Magnusson.  The  large 
studios  at  Rasunda,  near  Stockholm,  belong  to  A. 
B.  Svensk  Filmindustri,  who  have  a  studio  in 
Denmark   as   well. 

UNITED    KINGDOM 

The  following  report  on  film  conditions  in  the 
United  Kingdom  was  made  last  February  :  During 
the  past  few  weeks  there  have  been  many  reports 
in  the  newspapers  and  elsewhere  in  regard  to  the 
alleged  falling  off  in  the  attendance  of  Cinema 
Theaters  in  the  United  Kingdom,  which  is  attri- 
buted to  the  inferior  class  of  films  which  is  now 
being  shown  before  the  public.  As  regards  Lon- 
don it  is  certainly  true  that  even  at  the  best  Cinema 
Theaters,  a  very  inferior  class  of  film  is  being 
exhibited  in  comparison  to  a  year  ago.  In  an  open 
letter  to  British  film  exhibitors  entitled  "Why 
Cinemas  are  Empty"  published  in  the  "Daily 
Mail,"  Arthur  Weigall,  a  well  known  Egyptologist 
who  has  lately  associated  himself  with  theatrical 
and    Cinematograph    enterprises    writes    as    follows : 

"You  are  paying  the  price  now  of  your  block- 
booking  and  blind-booking  of  pictures  you  have 
neither  seen  nor  read  about,  whether  British  or 
American,  and  which  will  often  not  be  shown  until 
the  passage  of  months  or  years  has  made  them 
almost  out  of  date.*  *  *"  That  the  slump — if 
there  is  one — may  be  due,  as  Mr.  Weigall  says, 
to   block-booking  is  not  altogether   improbable. 

In  the  United  Kingdom  there  are  4,000  Cinema 
Theaters  as  opposed  to  the  20,000  in  the  United 
States.  As,  practically,  the  entire  American  film 
output  is  booked  for  exhibition  in  the  United  King- 
dom, it  is  inevitable  that  such  a  system  must  be 
adopted.  In  addition,  there  are  on  the  market 
a  large  number  of  British  Films  (produced  by 
British  companies,  photographed  in  England  and 
featuring  English  actors),  as  well  as  films  pro- 
duced on  the  Continent,  moreover,  British  ex- 
hibitors frequently  book  the  entire  output  for  the 
year  of  some  well  known  company,  such  as  "The 
Famous  Players'  'or  "The  Gaumont  Company" 
without  seeing  any  of  the  pictures,  but  relying 
merely  on  the  past  reputation  of  such  firms,  and 
the  drawing  power  of  their  names.  It  is  obvious 
that  in  the  annual  output  of  such  companies  which 
may  amount  to  fifty  or  sixty  pictures,  there  must 
be  some  failures.  Where,  in  the  United  States, 
such  failures  would  be  shelved  forever,  in  the 
United  Kingdom  they  are  shown  because  they  have 
already  been  booked,  and  it  is  natural  that  the 
public  after  seeing  a  number  of  such  failures, 
should  become  discouraged  and  stay  away  from 
the  Cinema  altogether.  Moreover  the  British  films 
which  have  been  shown  to  date  are  inferior  to  the 
good  American  productions.  And  the  patriotism 
which  prompts  the  exhibitors  to  show  British 
films,  is  not  responded  to  by  the  public  who  are 
willing  to  pay  provided  they  get  their  movie's 
worth   in   amusement. 

British  Films 
In  endeavoring  to  compete  against  the  United 
States,  British  Film  exhibitors  have  set  them- 
selves a  difficult  task.  They  have  neither  the 
experience,  nor  the  funds,  nor  the  climatic  con- 
ditions    which    are    at     the    disposal    of    American 


producers.  This  office  was  informed,  moreover, 
at  the  London  agency  of  a  well  known  American 
firm  of  Film  producers  that,  although  film  pro- 
ductions cost  approximately  the  same  in  England 
as  in  America,  the  returns  are  too  small  to  make 
such  large  outlays  practicable.  This  situation  is, 
moreover,  not  likely  to  change,  as  long  as  there 
are,  comparatively,  so  few  Cinemas  in  the  United 
Kingdom,  and  as  long  as  British  pictures  have 
such    a    small   market    in    the    United    States. 

Cinema  acting  in  the  United  Kingdom  is  hardly 
a  profession  in  itself,  as  it  is  in  the  United  States. 
The  number  of  film  productions  in  this  country 
is  too  small  to  afford  anything  like  regular  em- 
ployment to  anyone  adopting  it  as  a  profession. 
All  the  British  "Stars"  are,  or  have  been,  well 
known  actors  on  the  London  stage. 
Film    Censorship 

The  London  County  Council  has  recently  issued 
certain  new  regulations  in  regard  to  the  censor- 
ship of  films,  of  which  the  two  most  important 
provisions   are   as    follows : 

(1)  After  January  2nd,  no  films  are  to  be  ex- 
hibited in  any  theater  holding  a  Council  license 
unless  they  have  been  previously  passed  by  the 
British  Board  of  Film   Censors. 

(2)  After  July  1,  1922,  no  person  under  the 
age  of  16,  unless  accompanied  by  a  parent  or  bona 
fide  guardian,  shall  be  present  at  any  theater, 
where  films  passed  by  the  Board  for  "public"  or 
"adult,"  but  not  for  "Universal'  exhibition,  are 
shown. 

Films  are  divided  by  the  Board  of  Censors  into 
two  classes,  those  called  "A"  which  are  suitable 
for  adults  only,  and  those  called  "U,"  which  the 
Board    considers    suitable    for    universal    exhibition. 

It  is  evident  that  block-booking  is,  to  a  great 
extent,  responsible  for  a  number  of  very  inferior 
films  being  shown.  The  public,  certainly,  in  any 
case,  as  regards  London,  is  as  anxious  as  ever 
to  patronize  the  silent  drama  as  long  as  there  are 
good  plays  to  see.  The  fact  remains  that  many 
of  the  foremost  picture  houses  in  London  are 
suffering  from  considerable  loss  of  patronage. 
This  must  be  due  to  the  class  of  picture  shown. 
The  British  public  have  not  lost  their  taste  for 
film  plays;  "Way  Down  East"  was  produced  in 
London  on  September  5th  at  the  Empire  Theater, 
one  of  the  largest  and  the  best  known  music 
halls  in  London,  and  has  only  just  concluded  its 
run.  "The  Kid,"  drew  large  audiences  wherever 
it  was  shown,  and  during  its  exhibition  at  the  Royal 
Opera  House,  Covent  Garden,  there  was  scarcely 
an   empty  seat   in   the   theater. 

On  the  other  hand  at  a  small  Cinema  theater 
where  a  British  film  adaption  of  Ibsen's  "Pil- 
lars of  Society"  was  being  shown,  the  audience 
did   not   half   fill   the   theater. 

It  would  seem  that  a  play  like  "Pillars  of 
Society"  would  obviously  suffer  considerably  by 
being  adapted  for  the  Screen,  and  the  subject  un- 
suitable  generally   for    Cinema   audiences. 

Although  Cinema  Theaters  in  London  are  com- 
paratively few  and  far  between,  it  is  seldom  that 
regular  theaters  are  converted  for  the  exhibition 
of  screen  plays,  as  is  frequently  the  case  in  New- 
York.  On  the  other  hand  The  Empire  and  The 
Palace,  the  two  best  known  variety  houses  in 
London  have  both  to  resort  to  the  Cinema  in 
order  to  keep  their  doors  open.  The  Palace  at 
the  moment  is  occupied  by  a  revue,  the  lessees 
paying  a  rent  of  £700  a  week.  It  was  an- 
nounced in  a  newspaper  some  days  ago  that  this 
contract  was  likely  to  be  terminated  at  an  early 
date,  because  a  certain  film  producer  had  offered 
£850. 

The  London  Opera  House  opened  by  Oscar 
Hammerstein  in  1912,  failed  in  turn  as  an  opera 
house  and  a  music  hall,  and  is  now  doing  good 
business   as   a    Cinema. 

The  largest  and  most  luxuriously  appointed 
Cinema  Theaters  in  the  United  Kingdom  are  found 
in  the  Provincial  towns  of  England  such  as  Man- 
chester, Bradford,  Leeds  and  Liverpool,  though 
none  of  them  compares  in  size  and  comfort  with 
the    Capitol    in    New    York. 

Prices  of  Admission 

These  vary  considerably  according  to  the  tone 
of  the  theater  and  the  class  of  film  which  is 
being  shown.  Admission  to  the  regular  first  class 
Cinema     Theaters     in     London     range     from     l/3d 


426 


to  5/6d.  Seconrl  class  Cinemas  charge — 6d.  to 
^/ —  or  3/—.  At  the  Royal  Opera  House  and 
The  Empire  Theater  where  "The  Three  Mus- 
ketters"  and  "Way  Down  East"  were  shown  re- 
spectively. l-V—  were  charged  for  the  most  ex- 
pensive seats,  which  is  the  regular  West-End 
theater    price. 

European    Picture    Theaters 

.\  French  trade  organ  records  that  France  has 
about  2000  picture  theaters  for  its  population  of 
over  38  millions;  Norway,  with  about  3.600,000 
inhabitants,  has  170;  Denmark,  with  2,900,000  in- 
habitants, has  250;  Sweden,  with  5,800,000  in- 
habitants, has  over  200;  Holland,  with  roughly 
6,000.000  people,  has  but  180  movies,  while  Bel- 
gium possesses  800  for  a  population  of  about  8 
millions. 

Canadian    Film    Sales    Import   Tax    Ruling 
An   important  ruling  defining  the  basis  of  assess- 
ment   of    the    sales    tax    on    film    importations   made 
by    the    Commissioner    of    Customs    and    Excise    at 
Ottawa,   as  follows  : 

"Under  the  provision  of  the  amendment  to  the 
Special  War  Revenue  Act,  sales  tax  on  impor- 
tations must  be  computed  upon  the  duty-paid 
value,  which  is  defined  as  being  the  value  of  the 
article  as  it  would  be  determined  for  the  purpose 
of  calculating  an  ad  valorem  duty  upon  the  im- 
portation of  same  into  Canada  under  the  laws 
relating  to  the  Customs  and  the  Customs  Tariff, 
whether  such  article  be  in  fact  subject  to  ad 
valorem  or  other  duty  or  not,  and,  in  addition, 
to  the  amount  of  the  Customs  duties,  if  any,  payable 
thereon. 

"The  value  for  duty  on  films  sold  outright  to 
the  Canadian  importer  is  based  on  the  home  con- 
sumption value  at  time  of  shipment,  but,  in  no  case, 
less  than  the  invoice  value,  except  on  account  of 
reduction  in  the  fair  market  value  of  such  goods 
at  the  time  of  their  purchase  by  the  Canadian 
purchaser  and  their  exportation  into  Canada.  The 
value  for  duty  of  standard  films  shipped  on  con- 
signment into  Canada  without  sale  is  fixed  by  the 
department  at  not  less  than  an  appraisal  value 
of  8c  per  lineal  foot." 

French    Export    and    Import    Figures 

The  following  are  the  export  and  import  figures 
for   the   period    from    January    to   July    (inclusive)  : 

Export:  53,872,000  meters  of  film,  value  frs. 
213,300,000  (as  against  43,498,000  meters,  value 
frs.    172,250,000,   for  the  same  period  in   1921). 

Import :  Printed  film  (American,  German  and 
all  other  foreign  films),  January  to  July,  3,370,000 
meters,  value  frs.  6,168.000  (as  against  4,102,000 
meters,  value  frs.  9,096.000,  in  1921).  Raw  stock 
film,  January  to  July,  6,706,000  meters,  value  frs. 
4,328,000  (as  against  10,386,000  meters,  value  frs. 
9,504,000  in  1921). 

On  this  scale  the  year's  total  figures  would 
show,  approximately:  Export  92,352,000  meters, 
value  frs.  365,657,143.  Import  of  foreign  films, 
5,784,000  meters,  value  frs.  10,573,000.  Import 
of  raw  stock:  11,496,000  meters,  value  frs.  10,- 
573,715. 

The  exact  official  figures  will  not  be  available 
until  the  end  of  January,  1923,  when  it  will  prob- 
ably be  found  that  import,  both  of  foreign  films 
and  of  raw  stock,  has  considerably  decreased, 
while  export  of  films  has  undoubtedly  increased. 
Probably  the  figures  will  be  roughly  as  follows : 
Export,  about  96,000,000  meters,  value  frs.  423,- 
000,000.  Import  of  foreign  films  (amongst  them 
many  German  ones),  about  4.200,000  meters,  value 
approximately  frs.  8,500,000.  Import  of  raw 
stock,  about  9,000,000  meters,  value  approximately 
frs.    7,600,000. 

Teaching  Production  in  Munich 
The  N.  Y.  Globe  reported  in  March  : 
"In  Munich  a  film  university  has  been  founded 
that  gives  instruction  in  four  half-year  terms  in 
(1)  the  technical  phases,  (2)  acting,  scenery,  and 
management,  (3)  business  and  legal  branches,  and 
(4)  science  and  literature,  by  a  teaching  staflf,  in- 
cluding the  most  prominent  producers,  professors 
of  the  Munich  University  College,  actors,  photog- 
raphers and   other   technical   experts. 

"Capital  invested  in  the  film  industry  has  tre- 
mendously increased  in  the  last  two  years.  At 
the   end    of    1920    it   was   98,000,000   marks;    at    the 


end  of  1921,  291,000,000  marks,  and  at  the  close 
of  January  of  this  year,  319,000,000  marks,  or  an 
increase  of  more  than  300  per  cent  in  a  little  more 
than   a  year.

HOOVER'S    REPORT 

Early  in  the  year  Secretary  of  Commerce 
Hoover  made  a  report  to  the  United  State  Senate 
covering  the  scope  of  the  film  industry  in  its 
relation  to  foreign  commerce.  Excerpts  of  his 
report   appear   below. 

"Our  imports  of  exposed  film  for  1921  will 
apparently  be  about  half  as  large  as  in  1914. 
During  the  war  imnorts  fell  from  20,057,000  ft. 
in  1914,  to  the  low  mark  of  2,267,975  ft.  in  1918. 
Recovery  since  1918  has  been  rapid,  imports 
increasing  in  1920  to  6,233,000  ft.,  and  for  1921 
will  probably  be  approximately  10,000.000  ft.  The 
total  value  of  this  exposed  film  is  likely  to  be 
about  the  same  as  in  1914,  the  price  of  film, 
like   prices   of  other   commodities,   having   changed. 

"During  the  war,  the  development  and  expansion 
of  the  American  motion  picture  industry  proceeded 
with  great  rapidity.  Imports  of  exposed  film  de- 
clined, and  the  effect  of  foreign  competition  in  the 
domestic  field  became  less  important.  Exports  of 
exposed  film  increased  from  32,192,000  ft.  in  1913 
to   over    150,000,000   ft.    in    1919. 

"In  1920  our  exports  of  exposed  film  were 
175,233,000  ft.,  which  is  more  than  five  times 
the  highest  pre-war  figure.  For  1921  the  total 
export  will  probably  be  somewhat  less  than 
in    1920. 

"There  are  no  official  figures  on  the  domestic 
production  of  motion  pictures  with  which  im- 
port figures  can  be  compared.  But  as  compared 
with  our  domestic  exports  of  exposed  film  imports 
are  of  relatively  small  importance.  Even  for 
the  current  year,  in  which  imports  have  in- 
creased and  exports  decreased,  the  import  will 
probably  be  only  10.000.000  ft.,  while  exports 
will  be  at  least  140.000.000  ft.  Since  many  of 
tlie  pictures  sent  to  this  country  by  foreign  pro- 
ducers are  not  saleable,  and  are  never  shown 
before  American  audiences,  the  figures  for  the 
imnort  of  exposed  film  are  slightly  of  less  sig- 
nificance than  they  first  appear.  Further,  m 
gauging  the  importance  of  imports,  the  ra/pid 
development  and  expansion  of  the  domestic  in- 
di'Strv  must  be  taken  into  account.  An  import 
of  1,000  000  ft.  of  film  into  the  United  States 
today  means  much  less  to  the  industry  than  the 
importation  of  a  similar  amount  means  in  1914. 
The  domestic  market  has  so  developed  that 
20.000  000  ft.  (the  import  of  1914),  would  be 
more  easily  absorbed  today  than  a  much  smaller 
amount  in  1914.  E.xcept  for  four  German  and 
one  Italian  film,  pictures  of  foreign  make,  im- 
ported since  the  .  war,  have  not  been  especially 
successful."'
